I suspect my first infection...

I brewed an ipa, small 1 g batch a few weeks ago. When I bottled it, it had a very different taste to it that was obviously strange, somewhat sour I suppose. Now a week and a half following bottling day, the beer has the same taste that I explored with the first bottle. It's slightly sour, but more of a bubblegum flavor and scent. Sorry for not having a better descriptor, only way I can describe it. Was fermented with bry97. It's just enough off flavor to be repulsive.

Sounds infected. How does it pour out of the bottle? A lot or too much persistent foam?

Well it seems fully carbed, not excessively, but only after 1 week, its a strange taste, sour and bubblegum at the same time

My only infections have produced a nasty, difficult to describe taste. But it's always been accompanied by excessive, and at times, uncontrollable foam.

I still drink them, though. It's my punishment.
