Anyone want to take a look?

Anyone know what is going on here? It doesn't smell bad or taste off, honestly. I cleaned well, obviously not well enough though. Anyway, I think I know why but I don't know what it is exactly. Thanks.

Looks like brettanomyces and/or lactic bacteria.
Infected!

I agree with lazy llama. Do you like sour beers?

If it doesn't smell or taste bad to you, I'd go through the process and see what happens.

If it's not supposed to be funky, then....oops
Here is a photo of my intentionally funked Mango
It started off looking like yours
If it tastes good now, Drink Fast |

That picture is in primary after 4 weeks. I had the same thing in a previous batch and gave it some time in the bottles and now it is damn good. Has a bit of a wild flavor but nothing about it is bad really. I am hoping the same happens with this one. Thanks for the comments.  |

You may need to check your sanitation again, and again, and again and again. Wild can be good, but usually it's not
