just bottled my first batch, was left in primary for 4 weeks fg was rite on, color was great, smell was good, good taste but tasted kinda watery is this normal. it is a true brew october fest malt extract
 
Further conditioning & carbonating in the bottles then fridge time will all contribute to making the beer fuller bodied to a point. Flat beer out of the fermenter does seem a bit watery till it's ready to drink.
 
After bottle conditioning and carbonating it will taste better. I remember my first brew and it tasted thin, but after a few weeks in the bottle it got a lot better.

Let it sit for a few weeks.

Now brew more, because you will drink up that first batch pretty fast.
