Split Batch with Jacob initial results

Jacob kegged his beer a week ago and it has been on the fridge since. I kegged mine a few days ago. Mine seemed a little more estery but not much. He said his fermented a little cold. I think the keg shook up on the way over to me since there was a ton of yeast in the beer. I've noticed that as the beer brightens up the esters really come out. Mine was certainly brighter than his and if the temp cannot account for the difference in ester perhaps the yeast would. Also, he felt that the week in the keg helped ease up on the esters. He said it smelled like apple juice when we went to keg it which is exactly what it usually smells like. All in all I predict in a few weeks they will both taste the same and they will both be equally estery.
