I have a Belgian and, well, it's funky. I can definitely imagine it getting better with age and some chilling. I can also imagine it going very very south. Needless to say, I'm not tossing it yet. However, it has the same taste of the other few infected batches I've had. On the other hand, it's not all that bad... yet. And the S.G. is right at 1.010 which is right in the ball park of what I've come to expect (I routinely beat the attenuation estimates as a result of using pure O2 aeration).
I know, of course, that if it's not infected it's going to get better with age. I also know that it's too early to tell. I am thoroughly RDWHAHBing.
But I was just wondering whether S.G. is a good way of predicting infection. Does an infection always lower the SG?
