I can't wait to hear from Si how it actually turns-out!
Look 2 posts above yours :wink: .
My view in these situations is that you never really get to know, to cover up the blushes. :lol:
Oh, you're right, I missed it! I wonder if it would've toned-down over time? Oh well, lesson learned, and it sounds like he'll have consistent temperature controlled fermentation going forward.

Aye, I did consider that it may tone down, but it would have to actually fully morph into something else for it to be drinkable. It tasted horrendous and was fairly difficult to swallow. I couldn't bring myself to bottle it and have 40 bottles of really grim beer. Best to learn the lesson, get another bag of grain and brew something nice :D
