I had a quick taste of it. It is still a bit cloudy, but it actually tasted OK and had a good head. I hope it will improve over the coming weeks. I was worried that I had fermented it at too high a temperature initially (28 Celcius at one point) which might have resulted in the production of esters (causing a fruity flavour). This does not appear to be the case so I am pretty pleased with it.

My first attempt at brewing (a Young's American Amber Ale) has been in the pressurised Young's keg now for 2 weeks at around 20C so I am now taking it down to the cooler basement for a further 2 weeks.
