here you go...

this retard caused it all..



I use an air tight system that was sanitized thoroughly and was in its first month of fermentation when i smelled something weird coming out of the airlock one day. cracked the mofo open and what do i see????? a spot of white! I sanitized a scooper-of-infected-bull****e and skimmed the top, assuming that a beer of 10+% abv would take care of the rest, but no. i checked it a week ago and it was back, but a lot larger. took a picture tonight, and here we go!



Long story short, dont trust your airlock. its the only way this dang thing could have gotten infected. boo.

I highly doubt your airlock caused this.

this could be the start of something special, especially since it's high in alcohol... let it go for a while and see what results.
