Upon further review...

pulled the beer out of the freezer last night with a good chill on it, and WOW!!

yes, WOW!!

WOW as in holy crap that's sweet.  The carbonation appears to have kicked the sweetness into high gear a bit, but it's still drinkable.  I'm sure much worse has been made in batch 1 of someone's brewing life.

Theories:
-Too much sugar
-Not enough yeast to properly "eat" the sugar that was present
-Pyhtagorean
-Not enough filtration between the boil and the fermenter
-Relativity, where c is of course the speed of light in a vacuum
-The carbonation needs more time to get all the way through and sit for a bit to help condition the beer
-Barney Stinson is the greatest sitcom character since George, Kramer, and the parents Costanza

We'll see what happens in the coming week.  If all else fails, it doesn't suck, so friends, be ready to come over and have a beer and tell us what you think went wrong or would like changed...

ps - i also like ellipses... a lot... potentially even more than oxford commas...

  2. Brad in an apron? No doubts, pictures would be helpful! And Dan, distinguish between theories and facts: Barney is indeed the greatest sitcom character. Take it as a fact!
