This batch of beer that i'm drinking I thought for sure was ruined
#1 I forgot to fill the airlock for the first 24 hours
#2 it spewed allover my fridge and sat for at leat a day or two before I noticed
It was out in the garage and we were seeing a 20 degree shift in temps
One day it would snow and the next be sunny (did this repeatedly)
I didn't even bother to put it into a secondary
After 4 weeks I figured I would just through it in a keg and see how bad it was
Didn't even bother to age it in the keg - just long enough to get cold
Tell you what, its darn good - Very clean, just the right amount of bitter
Nice white head, good head retention
A bit cloudy, but all my beers do that
Seriously, Don't give up on your beers - some of the batches I was sure were bad turned out the best
