This is crappy and grainy. Don't waste your grain. Brewed with RAHR 2 row

This beer tasted grainy and doughy and basically crappy, until ... it has been 2 months since brew day, about 5 weeks in the bottle, and the flavors are rounding out really nicely. It has changed from a beer I did not want to drink, into one I look forward to drinking. Pretty decent, but let it age some.
