I so wanted to like it...

I must be the minority. I have heard nothing but raves over Bryce's Vanilla Creme Custard so I purchased a15ml bottle, also the Flan. I tried Flan right away and hated it so I said to myself, give it some time and I let them steep for 3 weeks. With great expectation I half filled my tank tonight with vanilla creme custard and it's not great and not good vapor production either. Am I the only one who is not a fan? I haven't even tried the free sample of banana creme pudding yet, just afraid it will be just as bad to me. I hate to put up a bad review, but I just don't get all the commotion over these flavors? I apologize to Bryan, I so wanted to love them

There's a ton of hype for certain juices - I myself have done what you've done (not with Bryce's) and have been underwhelmed as well. It's hard not to want to like something that everyone says is the shizzle, but it truly is a trial and error thing, finding the right juice for YOU. Thankfully (at least for now) there are so many choices available that everyone can find something that they think is amazing.

No harm, there is no universally great juice in existence, I very much wanted to fall in love with Five Pawns Queen's Side, alas I found it much less enjoyable than eating lima beans out of an unwashed bowl lined with raw liver.

At least you didn't buy it in a gallon bottle ;-)

I have several more juices "aging" that I haven't tried yet, hate the wait, but if you want to taste it right.... Hope i have better luck with these.

Before giving up on them totally, I would put them back in your aging cupboard for a while longer. The whole "taste being subjective" thing. I have found, for myself, that some of the bakery flavors I like, and most of the creamy, custardy ones, really benefit from a good, long time steeping. On the other hand, my daughter loves Mt. Baker Vapor's Hawk Sauce straight out of the mailbox, whereas I have seen other members post that it does not taste right to them until they have steeped it for varying lengths of time.

I have heard that custards can take a couple of months of steeping. I like Bryce's, but it did need to sit for about 3 wk to be really good--it was
just okay the first week or so.
