I'm drinking the Rogue Morimoto Soba kit beer I brewed a month ago. It tastes exactly as I remember it, but it has almost the same aftertaste as a banana, only much more subdued. I'd have to try the real thing to get a comparison, but I think I could learn to appreciate what I have. Or, I really, really screwed it up, and I'm out $40, a month's worth of time and effort, and yet another failure on my record. I've had three wins, out of six brews. I really need a win.
I'll try my original recipe beer on Friday, because that's when I'll be available to drink it. I hope it actually tastes good, because I am getting disheartened by all of these bad brews.
