My previous batch of ESB has an infection. I asked a brewer at a local brewpub about it and from my description he told me it is the kind of bacteria used in Lambic. So my assumption is that is ok to drink. It has a faint odor of.....I don't know......feet, maybe. Not strong enough to turn me away from it. The infection appeared on bottling day as I opened the secondary. There was a very thin coating/layer of filmy stuff over the beer. Does anyone know if this is the bacteria used in Lambic production or a similar strain? Also is it safe to drink?
Thanks in advance
