Hi All,
Newbie alert, Just brewed my first homebrew (Woodfordes Admiral Reserve) which was impressively good to drink.
Its been in a pressure barrel, in the garage (adjoined to house) , and of course during the last few days the temperature has dropped from mild to freezing!
On Tuesday I poured half a pint and it was crystal clear, and so on the Wednesday evening, as we were having a gathering for Nov 5th, I very carefully moved the barrel into the kitchen for all to consume.(Had about 16 pints left then)
The first pour was cloudier than the night before. Initially I put it down to the move. It was still very drinkable and quite a few beers were downed that night by all. So the day after I checked for cloudiness after moving back into garage (carefully). I was shocked as it was VERY cloudy indeed.
I don't think the taste was too dissimilar, maybe very slightly off/going?
Left the pint out overnight thinking it could be "chill haze" which I read about, but it didn't clear so am I to think that the beer is going off now?
Thanks for any responses.
Andy
