Tasting the Linthwaite Light

Oh dear :-( Phil and I cracked open the first 2 bottles of the 3 week old Linthwaite Light. It is not good. I find it hard to describe it, other than to say it had a very cheap beer taste and smell. There was a, perhaps yeasty, taste that hits you almost before its even in your mouth and then very little else after that. Phil politely finished his pint, but I ended up chucking mine down the sink. It doesn't really have much of a green taste so Im not even that hopeful tat it will improve dramatically with age, but I shall leave it well alone now for probably another month and see if anything good comes of it. (My judgement probably wasn't helped by having just finished a bottle of Phil's Colne Valley which was really good, and having just returned from a trip to Brussels and all the fine beer that comes with that.)

I forgot to mention that this was the brew that spent 6 weeks in the fermenter - I don't know if this could be part of the problem with this brew.
