Hey folks,

I've had a cold for the past few days and was wondering if it would be unwise to bottle a batch of beer tomorrow. I'm assuming that since the alcohol has already developed, it should be ok from contamination. I'm also under the assumption that no known pathogens can survive in beer. Any thoughts?
 
Unless you goob in the beer it will be fine! If you do goob....probably still fine! Alcohol is a great sanitizer!
 
Common colds and the flu are caused by viruses not bacteria or fungus. You are golden. Bottle on. :rockin:
