I brewed an 1.044 OG full boil extract pilsner. Simple recipe. It was about 5# pilsner LME/DME and a couple of Liberty hop additions. Pitched 2 packs of W34/70 dry @ 55F and fermented at 50F temp controlled for two weeks before D rest for 2 days at room temp. Lager @ 34F for 6 weeks. 5oz priming sugar and a sprinkle of dry yeast at bottling. Carb/condition @ ~68F.
I tested one out at the 10 day and had a wine like nose and front taste. Not undrinkable but obviously out of character for the style.
I'm assuming oxidation but I'm not 100% sure. Anyone experience this before? Will it age out? Any input is always welcome. Thanks all.
