Where did all this color come from?

[Brettomomyces]

this is from Tonsmeire's twitter feed, I would have posted one of mine but I think I cleared it off my phone. the glass on the right was left out 24 hours, left is a fresh pour. Oxygen is a beast

When did you add the sugar? I would check the preboil pH (should be <pH6) and add sugar at the end of the boil If necessary. This way 60min boil should be no problem, people are doing it all the time without color problems.

Sugar right at the end of boil. PH was 5.8. I'm starting to think my RIMS tube is to blame. Might have caramelized a bit during recirc?

I don't know... the awful oxidized taste usually comes long before a beer looks that disgusting. I'm amazed it's drinkable at all looking like that (no offense OP).

Damn Gina. Disgusting? LOL No joke this beer was unreal. Like a 10%abv Todd the Axeman. If oxidation is that much of a game changer I'm thinking this wasn't my issue.
