Help with an off flavor

[wildwest450]

My CAP hydrometer sample had a "green apple" taste to it, can anyone help??

are you sure your airlock activity was constant. Looks like that beer is ruined.

what is CAP?

Classic American Pilsner, yum.

Hmmm. Green Apple you say? I wonder if it's water chemistry related. Or perhaps related to yeast health. I will go with the obligatory "Send it to me for proper analysis" line also. Oh, wait, also, I am supposed to ask about hydrometer readings and how long it's been bottled! Whew!

Now, tell me- how's the CAP? I feel like I need to make one. It's been a long, long time.

Fantastic summer beer, the one on tap only lasted 2 weeks, I can't make it fast enough.
