Is this an infection? (pic)

Hi guys, I am a pretty new brewer. This is a great forum.

The beer is about 14 days old, 7 days in the secondary. This schmutz is starting to form on the sides of the carboy....is this bacteria or just yeast being yeasty? What to do, friends? Pic is in link.

No, its just yeast sticking to the ridges of the carboy. You are fine!

Thank you

Mosquitocontrol is wrong, your beer is toast! Mail the bottled product to me for confirmation

You're in the clear!

No worries!

I think it needs a second opinion. Send me half. Spludge and I will convene and post our findings.

It's an SNPA clone....I just bottled it and it tastes just like the real thing (as much as it can at this stage), it's gonna be hard to wait a month. I added some Milwaukee's Best to the sample I took and it is pretty dang delectable. Thanks all!

Really? You added Milwaukee's Best to the sample... I hope this is a joke.

Just enough to carbonate it. I am poor, nothing else on hand. Plus I actually love crappy (cheap) beer as well as good beer.

Fair enough. Just don't add MB to the beer when you actually keg/bottle it. And just relaxe, the beer is going to turn out fine.
