Hi everyone,
I am trying to find a response to this question:
How long does it take for chlorophenol to develop its flavor profile in beer?
I have read that it tastes medicinal, like band-aids. I believe that I have noticed it in my products, but only after about 4 months or so, in a can, at room temperature. If the beer is stored cold, or if the beer is fresh, I do not get the same flavor. As far as I can tell, I am not getting infections either in the products that I believe have the flavor, but I have yet to test them.
One other thing (and you are going to whip me for this, please don't hate me): the brewery I work for does not have any filtration system to take out the chlorine and we use city water. Sometimes the water coming in smells like pool water.
Any thoughts?
Cheers,
Dan
