After using a potassium metabisulfite treatment on my infected Earl Wit, I waited about 2 weeks (kegs were all full, dammit) I finally kegged this beer and hoped for the best. The next day it was carbed and tasted, here’s what I found out

infected Earl wit

The beer looked perfect, just like a normal batch, but when I went to smelt it, it wasn’t what I was expecting.  Earl Wit has a great lemon nose with hints of tea and wheat, this beer smelt like a stanky becks.  Which isn’t that horrible, but out of place.  The taste of the beer completely blew my mind.  This beer, after the infection and treatment, had a flavor nearly exactly to an uninfected beer.  There is a very subtle tartness, but nearly unnoticeable, and I really think it might be my mind convincing me of the off flavor.

Final observation….. infection? so what! keg it and drink it. I’m really glad I didn’t dump this beer! I still pray to the shrine of “Relax, don’t worry, HAVE A HOMEBREW”
