I got a taste of my first brew (a red ale from brewers best) on the way from the primary to the secondary.
I was fairly bland tasting, not bad, but not great. No real off flavors or anything. Kind of tasted like the smell of the glass a couple of hours after I drank a leinie's red lager.
Once I bottle this this weekend, it will sit till sometime late august, due to vacation and work schedules.
I understand the beer was not carbed, not cold, and really green, but what can I expect as far as flavors, Ive never tasted a beer coming out of the primary before, so I dont know if im in for a nasty brew or if the flavors get better with age and carbing. It drinkable Im sure, but will it be good.
