Bottling too early is not in the prospects. Opened to early, or just shouldn't have bottled it period are my hunches.
We dry hopped at two weeks, and it was basically flat in the fermenter and bottled just over a month out from brew day. I've had several others from the same batch (a brewers best falconers extra ipa with two dry hop additions) and this was the only one with this amount of carbing. The rest have opened fine, and poured fine. I, being excitable, had one at 5 days into the condition cycle and while a bit young tasting, was fine for carbonation.
Specifically, this was an end of the batch bottling and we had maybe two like this that picked up a ton of sediment from the trub that got carried over from the fermenter. This ipa batch has yeast caked quite nicely, and this one was a thick cake but it was also entirely opaque when held up whereas the rest are pretty much transparent with a white puck base. Kinda doubt it was from excess sugars left on the bottom that weren't stirred cos we liquify and pour it in before we rack for bottling. Could be a lone infection that got overlooked, but I'm rather doubtful of that because I lean towards being overly clean and washed them as well as processed the entire batch in the dishwasher on a disinfect cycle and the bottle caps are in a bowl with sanitizer. Their conditioned at about 60 - 65, and I chilled this before attempting to pour it.
I can only think there was too much yeast in the bottle and the sugar made it start to party again and this should been parked well and away from prying hands or never bottled to begin with.
