So I've been brewing for a couple years, not that often, maybe once a month. I like to think I demonstrate good sanitation practices. I bottled a gallon batch about a week and a half ago and noticed this in the neck of all bottles(attached imaged). I've never seen this. Possibly an infection? Looking for feedback. Hopefully I am overreacting.

interesting. Are you sure it was finished fermenting, and were you careful to make sure no hops, etc were racked into the bottling bucket? That bottle has a funky shape, I'm wondering if that has to do with it.
 
Its a Hoegaarden bottle. I've used them before and never had a problem. With this batch I used wild black raspberries, extremely sweet and high in sugar. It wasn't a heavily hopped batch either. Thanks for the response.

No idea - but looks pretty cool. Hope it turns out alright! Oh, and if brewing once per month is "not that often", then I need to brew way more...which is a given...but that makes me envious.
