Just did a taste test of our first homebrew (Munich Lager) that we bottled in Jan. Apart from still being a little green it came up OK. Should be a whole lot better in a few weeks. After the bottle capping Olympics we had when bottling this Lager ended up tasting fairly good.
We bottle half with carbonation drops & half with sugar & interestingly the bottles using carbonation drops had more of a softdrink type carbonation feel than the sugar primed ones. The sugar primed bottles definitely tasted better, had more clarity and maintained their head better. Does anyone have any input as to why this is the case?
It will be interesting to see the comparison after a few more weeks.
Cheers
