My beer only tastes WORSE with time

Though this may not be part of the cause to the original problem (bad taste after bottling), know that, in addition to steeping at the temperatures noted, you should also avoid squeezing the grains to remove the liquid after steeping. This can also release tannins and bad tastes into the wort.

Guilty as charged . . . I pressed my spoon against the grains and squeezed as much of the "good stuff" out as I could . . . a mistake I shan't repeat again! Thank you for the tip!

urine is sterile. note, I didn't say SANITARY... it is actually STERILE. it might not taste great, but there's nothing in there that needs to be killed.

A buddy of mine actually makes a beer he calles Pee Pee Ale (PPA - pale pale ale)! It's pretty good, although not exactly pale pale. It does make you pee pee.

I've had about 10 cups of coffee today, and a batch is ready right now. Do you want it straight out of the tap?

You know, as much as I'd love to try it, I have a feeling that I can take a swig of either of my first two batches of homebrew and it will taste about the same!
