Hi people,
I just brew my first blonde ale 2 weeks ago, and yesterday when I was preparing to keg my beer and measured my alcohol level it was off by 1%, I was expecting to get 5% alcohol content and it came out only with 4%. Aside from that as O tried my the beer the flavor was way to sweet and it had an orange juice kind flavor, you could barely notice the hops flavor( I think that is normal because my hop content was low). I am afraid my beer has been contaminated can someone help me with this? thanks!
