So, I've made a few lagers before but never one as light as a Helles. Everything else has had a strong flavor background ruachbier, and very hoppy pilsners. I just racked it to a keg with biofine after lagering for 2 months, but it's a little fruity. It's nothing offensive, but it's certainly not to style and not what I wanted in a Helles. I am not sure if this is because it needs a little more time to settle out, or if maybe I had a yeast issue. Any of you Helles brewers find this to be the case with yours?
Edit: I guess I should add that I am 95% sure it's an acetaldehyde problem. But after 2 months of lagering, I can't believe it's still there.
