Does anyone have experience with Ringwood yeast producing hydrogen sulfide odors or do I have a bacterial infection?
 
I used ringwood yeast one time an I remember it smelling just like eggs. I think there are a couple post about it on here already.
 
+1 for sulphur from Ringwood. The good thing is that it dissapates with age. I brewed a "wife beer" with it and was worried about the aroma after primary ferment. A few weeks in the bottle took care of it.
