thanks for all your input, guys.
i'm leaning toward Boo Boo's explanation. If it's possible that some of the bottles kept fermenting, that would fit what happened. I added additional lactose at bottling time to about 25% of the batch. I'll have to look up what fusels and ethenols do to my stomach.
the leftovers from yesterday tasted great. despite what happened, i didn't have the heart to dump the 4th beer i took a sip of before the vomiting began. It's mellowing out in the fridge until I recover.:cross:
What happened is that after that 3rd beer, I just got ridiculously drunk. I was kind of pissed off that three beers could do that to me. From now on I'm keeping my limit of these to two!
Thanks again all!
pingi- leave it alone and get a hydrometer to test it once a week. when the reading is the same 3 or more days apart, it's done fermenting. so far all my brews stopped visible fermenting signs pretty early, but kept on going for a while.
