Hey guys! I made this sour peach kit thats been in primary for 2 weeks. I am moving it to a keg now and noticed this mold particle. Should I just toss it, or proceed and carbonate it?

If it tastes good, I'd gently scoop this out and package the beer. I doubt you'll have a problem but you can always dump it later if you do. Good luck! 🍻
 
imo u should fish that out and try to package that as soon as possible and keep it cold.. reason being is that it is infected and the quicker you get it cold the less likely for it to progress.
since it is a sour how would you know if its off? just kidding. but you prolly have a little more leeway with a sour then say a lager.
