So my fermentation fridge died about halfway through fermenting a Vienna lager. It got up to 70 degrees and finished rather quickly. Now it isn't terrible but it has a slight saison like flavor. Could that be from warm fermentation or should I suspect an infection? Also I should add that it was a huge pitch of wlp833.
 
Helles yeah bock.
Dumped on a yeast cake from the Marzen I brewed on 1/1/20. I brewed this on 1/25 and kegged it 20 days later. It has been sitting patiently, in a keg, on the basement floor, waiting for a spot in the keezer. First pour, warm, quaffable and tasty. Really liking this method of warm fermenting lagers.
