So my not-so-hoppy pale ale took another crap turn. Opened up a bottle today and it was ridiculously over carbonated. It didn't shoot out, but eventually about half of the bottle came out as foam.
I've read up on a lot of the existing threads about the topic so I'm aware it can be quite a few different things. Right now I'm leaning towards an infection or incomplete fermentation.
BUT I do have a question: do gusher bugs ALWAYS cause an off flavor? If so, how quickly can I expect it to set in? The beer has been in the bottle for 3 weeks.
Thanks!
