Hi. I started the above kit Nov 15, 2005 and bottled it July 2006. The instructions said at least 6 months, so I just opened my first bottle this month (December).
The nose is ok, the taste is ok, but the color has a brown-ish base to it. If I am reading the googling I did and the websites of experts - this means it is oxidized and may not last much longer.
Has anyone else done this kit and is yours a brown-ish base to it? Maybe I did something wrong, I never let the airlocks dry.
