Hi, just joined the forum having recently started home brewing, daughter bought me a kit and off i went.
Having dome the Woodefords Wherry ok i did their Admirals reserve and its nice and drinkable but still a bit sweet, might try without priming sugar (in the barrell)
Last one i did was festival landlord one and its in the garage at the moment and I dont know if its gone wrong.
It was started early September when it was warm, running around 24 degrees mostly. It bubbled away nicely, added hops as instructed and then left. Barrelled it as per instuctions and left warm untill two weeks ago when it was bumped into the garage, at which point i drew a sample off and it was flat, swapped caps on the barrell and stuck a CO2 cartridge in it, two weeks later and it still tastes off, do i leave it and see what happens or is the fact it was flat in the barrell an indication it was dead some time ago?
Thanks in advance
Ps it was a new barrell and tap and a non co2 cap, but withe the new cap has held pressure and old cap looks ok.
