Yes, all, it's the obligatory is-this-an-infection thread.
The batch you see in the picture was fermented on top of old trub for three weeks. Previous batch turned out great. Before bottling I gave a shotglass to my wife to try (before I tried it) and she almost threw up. She thought it tasted rotten and moldy. She always tastes my batches before bottling so it's not that she doesn't know what she's tasting.
I felt bad for having her taste Satan' anus so I tried a shotglass for myself, but I didn't think it was that bad. Then I drank more from the gravity reading container. It doesn't taste quite right, but it's not as bad as I thought it was. My wife was eating a chocolate bar so maybe that threw her taste off.
I bottled it anyway, but before doing so, I took pictures. The reason I am asking the question here is that I wanted to pour another batch on top of the two-generation-old trub, but I am not going to risk it. If it is an infection, I'd like to know so I can try to pinpoint where I went wrong.
