I'm drinking my second batch of beer. The first was an old kit and the cider taste was not too terrible - I told my daughter is was "fruity" and we drank it up. This batch was not old but it has a bit of a cider taste also. Still quite drinkable but...
On friday I'll try my first non Coopers beer, my modified recipe for American pale ale w/extra hops. I am looking forward to trying it but I am now concerned about this tasting cidery.
Is this common for Coopers kits - could it be the yeast, or an infection? What is strange about this is that after 2 weeks when I tried the beers it was pretty good, but now 3-4 weeks in the bottle it seems to have this cider underflavor.
