I brewed a 1 gallon batch of sour beer using the dregs from a bottle of crooked stave progenitor and a pound of wheat DME back in December. I took a small sample of the beer (~5ml) to taste and while it tasted good, it had a slightly cheesy aroma that increased as the beer sat in a glass. I'm thinking it's butyric or isovaleric acid, but I'm not 100% sure. Is this smell something that will go away with time, or am I stuck with it?
Thanks in advance for the help.
