Water

That is NOT some high quality H2O.

Had to dump #89 and #90. I believe it's because of the water quality when I brewed. I've had this problem before with August beers. I think it's the chloramine in the municipal water. It's happened a few years in a row now.

I brewed #91 with Kroger water (gallon jugs). Turned out fine.
