Okay, so I had my first beerplosion. It was 5 gallons of hefeweisse on its first night, exploding out of my 6 gallon carboy. There was no blowoff tube just an airlock. The pressure blew off the airlock, and shot beer 7 feet in the air straight up, coating my ceiling in a thick, yeasty syrup. I should have believed everyone when they told me how crazy hefes ferment. Oh well, now I know for next time.
What do you guys think? Is my beer most likely contaminated? What are the chances this batch is near ruined?
