Did something wrong! Two weeks fermenting a blond ale, and was just about to bottle it. Has a very fruity smell, incredibly sour, and since I was also making cider at the same time,,,did I? I really don't think I mixed anything up (4 batches, all different)
I think I used a bad batch of harvested yeast. Also a black krausin ring around the top.
Question..
Would this put this batch into the 'sour' beer world? Bottle and see? In case of bombs, I will only use plastic pop bottles. Or just call the ER now and tell me to get ready?
Sorry for the misdirection, figured out this was a screwed up batch of cider, I reused the yeast cake from a batch of beer and forgot to update the label! I left the carboy sitting too long before dumping in the Apple juice. So 5 gallons of vinagar!
