I was brewing a wheat doppelbock in early May and experimenting with keeping the lid loose to get some effects of open fermentation. At the end of primary fermentation the beer got infected but I decided to stick it out and see what came of it. I transferred it to secondary and a pectile formed then went away after a bit, I think around Memorial Day. Now the beer smells and tastes pleasant with just a bit of sourness. I was just wondering whether I should keg this up soon and serve it, age it longer, or bottle it and let it sit for a few months. I don't know how long is best to age these things.
Also, if this turns out tasting good, what would be the best way to repeat? I guess I could always pour a pint or two of the old beer in the next batch.
