Hey All,
I brewed a wheat beer this fall, racked it on to peach puree in a secondary around early November-ish (probably should have looked at my brew logs before posting this.) The point is, life got in the way of bottling this beer with the holidays and all and it has sat until this weekend without even looking at it in months. When I did look at it ... the pictures below are what I found. From the searching I did on the forums, I gather it's either pellicle or a lacto infection ... which doesn't sound too bad. I'm probably going to go ahead and bottle it tomorrow anyways unless I'm directed not to in this thread. It sounds like it might give the beer a sour taste which would go well with a peach wheat. Any thoughts? Thanks for the help!! (P.S. sorry for the crappy pics ... they're the best I was able to get)
