When I poured that glass it had been bottled for about two weeks. It was drinkable but I think it needed another two weeks to mellow out. That will be around Friday of next week.
Have it cold ! :)
Also, in my experience with kits, your second batch will be about 5 or so times better than the first batch. However, your third, fourth and x more batches will only be very slightly better than your second batch. That's because you will likely have got the hang of it by then.
If/When you do all-grains, then you really start fiddling with the finer points of beer taste. All-grains are much more complex in flavor and IMO, more complicated to make.
IMO, both kits and all-grains are far superior in flavor to anything you can buy at a grocery, gas station or beer store and are almost always, MUCH LOWER COST to make.
