Hello there, I just brewed my first beer ever, an IPA.
i had a previous thread that you helped me a lot regarding stuck fermentation
however, now that it is carbonated color changed a lot.
First, before bottling, it was somewhat orange (pic without carbonation)
then, after bottling conditioning I opened 3 bottles by now, 2 were amazingly brown, one was just a bit darker but still orange.
do anyone have any thought on this strange phenomenon? how can the same beer bottled at the same time from the same bottling bucket darken so much in one week? and why do one of the three bottles was not brown?
The taste is not much different from what it was at bottling and since i'm new at this i really can't detect any off-flavors.
i dry hopped at those metal hop balls and i think it may have some parts that are not stainless steel and therefore could've contributed with iron ions at the beer.
so... any thoughts?
