I brewed the lemon coriander weiss kit from midwest, and thus far, I'm disappointed with the brew.
The recommended one lemon's zest was apparantly not enough, as I cannot taste any lemon at all. But that is unrelated to my question...
After about 2.5 to 3 weeks in the bottle and a week in the fridge, it tasted pretty good and very drinkable, though not what I wanted (I did drink about 7 of 'em around a fire. 6.7%ABV). I put in another sixer of it in the fridge closer to 4 weeks after bottling, waited a week, and had some more to find that it tasted not good at all, and had a rubbing alcohol taste to it.
The last 12 pack of it is in the fridge and it still has that taste to it, and was so bad that I actually couldn't finish the beer.
Now, even though it is in the fridge already, will this taste mellow out?
If not, no biggie, I'll use it to boil brats!
Thanks!
