Tasting Notes (1)

Brewer 117789

Tasted on 9/17/2019 by Brewer 117789

Notes:

Tasted approximately 1 week in the bottle. Not bad, not great. Had a slight 'apple-y' flavor; perhaps due to the percentage of corn in the grist. Could also be from hop selection or yeast selection/temperature. If diacetyl, more time in the bottle could fix that.
