I've just brewed my first batch ever. For my first time I went with the Cooper's European Lager kit.

FG was stable for 3 days (due to some personal stuff I couldn't bottle it on day 2) and the FG matched the expected end ABV as advertised.

The beer tasted pretty good on sampling before bottling.

So far so good.

One thing I am surprised by, however, is how dark this lager looks. Not sure if this will get lighter during the 2 weeks that it's suggested to leave it in the bottle, it's something that can happen to this different batches, or it's just how this beer looks?

Thanks for any tips/advice anyone can offer :)
