To be honest, it’s difficult to tell once the beer’s in the FV. I’ll measure the OG, but that’s about it. I certainly wasn’t aware of any ‘off’ smells. I’m so disappointed as I sit here. 9 weeks of primary and secondary fermentation, cold conditioning and then back to room temperature, for nothing.
I’ve emailed Young’s.
Mine turned out very similar ! Purchased from The Brew Store in Edinburgh. I thought it looked a bit dark in the FV but let it ferment out. Approx 3-4 weeks later bottled a very Dark strange brew - On opening the first bottle it was like Guinness but with a horrible fruity twang !
I e-mailed Youngs who were very surprised when I sent the attached photo ! They explained that it may have been due to incorrect storage during production and agreed to send a replacement AIPA kit !
Just finished the second kit and it tastes very good !
However I'm very disappointed that I now have 40 pints of ..... well YUK ! - But the second brew tastes Great :-) !
