So I have a Liberty Ale clone that's been fermenting for 2 weeks at 68 degrees. The yeast used was american ale from wyeast and I made a two liter starter. When I brewed this beer, I was running out of propane and the second half of the boil wasnt as vigorous as i usually like it and the flame went out 5 min early. Anyway, i was about 5 points shy of my target OG. I just racked yesterday into a carboy to dry hop it, and when i checked the gravity, it read 1.002. The target was 1.012, so i immediately suspected infection. I tasted and smelled the sample, and I cant really detect infection. It does not smell vinegary or taste sour at all, and is actually a little sweet. Any idea what is going on?
