My batch of fermenting beer smells kind of funky sort of like a sour hoppy smell. i didnt notice any smell last time i brewed but this time i can smell it coming out of the airlock. What does beer usually smell like while fermenting? its a pale ale and i added the hops to the boil instead of steeping them in a bag. could the weird smell be the yeast going through the hop sediment? or is my beer contaminated?
