    Default syrup that smells buddy but tastes ok?

    My last batch of this year definitely stank all the way to the end, but doggone it if it doesn't taste ok. I thought my taste buds were going bad, but my wife sampled it and thought it just fine as well. Anyone else ever had that happen?

    I had the same thing all season. I noticed a very slight flavor, but my wife and Dad both thought it was fine
