Taste Notes
November 6, 2014: After some time in the bottle I cracked one open today. The beer has a definite nasty medicinal taste to it almost like a band-aid. It's clear the phenolics from the yeast are completely taking over the beer. The lack of consistent fermentation temperature has ruined this beer at least to this point. Not sure if these flavors will ever dissapate or not but at this time it is undrinkable.This Recipe Has Not Been Rated
