Hoppy taste

[Hollow Legs]

Hi Guys and gals

Just bottled a 'pride of Yorkshire Premium lager' made by Brupaks, this is a two can kit with Brewferm lager yeast and a Hop tea bag.

SG 1.0042 at 20degrees and kept at around 16-18 degrees for 15 days FG 1.0009 a tad higher than I wanted the FG to be but it just stopped three days ago and has been consistently 1.0009 since then so I decided to bottle today.

I tried the brew each time I checked the gravity and it tastes very 'hoppy' for a lager and is quite dark, will the hop taste lessen as time goes by or will it be a predominant taste no matter how long it is left

Any thoughts gratefully received

Happy Christmas to you all.

Colin.
