Can't say I'm not a bit disappointed, but I'm undeterred and will brew again next week as I ordered the agave wit from Austin.
I have a tiny question, though. Is this what the trub on the bottom of my fermenter should look like?

Yes, exactly. All that spent yeast, that's some good stuff right there!
If you had another beer ready to go, you could just dump the wort right on top of that and be off & running in no time.
I wouldn't worry about the taste right now, unless it was rancid!
Unless I dry hop it can be deceiving, almost all of my beers taste pretty much the same straight out of the fermenter (I always drink the left over beer from the measuring cylinder.) What style/recipe did you go with?
