So I just opened a bottle of my most recent lager and there was a white powder halfway around the rim of the bottle where the cap sits. It wasn't inside the bottle at all and I've drank several bottles of this beer already and not seen this before. I've never had this on any beer I've brewed. Does anyone know what this might be? Also the beer tastes the same as the other bottles.
 
Did you clean the bottles with oxyclean or pbw? What did you sanitize with? If any of those were powder, it is probably just some "scale" from it-the liquid dried and the powder came back. Nothing to worry about.
