I was just ready to bottle my irish stout from secondary and seen this. I skimmed the spore off and bottled any ways. It also tasted marvelous!! I was just wondering if anyone has seen this.

Nice snowy white, just slightly fuzzy mold on food products is often penicillium. I'm no expert though, I don't even know if it can make floating colonies.

One of my first few beers had a similar thing grow on it however I did not even see them until I was bottling one went into a bottle.... The brew tasted so go I kept drinking them and finally found the one that went into the bottle.

I used the justification that there is nothing deadly can survive in beer.... don't know if it was right but I drank all the bottles and even the one that I found the mold in (after I skimmed it off)

My question is is mold always fuzzy or green?.Because i had a thin white paint like flakey film on a few of mine, I tried to skim them but it was near impossible and was wondering if those could be from mold spores as well, i bottled mine but couldnt get all of it out and alot of them are in the bottle just on top. Ive had them months and havent gotten any gushing, although i notice when i open the bottles the thin somewhat white translucent layer some look like a clear transpernt gell like film on the surface of the bottles, seems to foam up and dissapear.Im a bit afraid of drinking mold really.Not shure if its lacto.

After you let the bottles sit warm for about 2 or 3 weeks to carbonate, move them all to the fridge. The cold will hopefully stop whatever that is from growing too quickly.... Cheers!

The mold is all white and fuzzy. Thanks. I also heard I can put the beers in the fridge to stop or slow the growth. Thanks again for the info
