Ever Get Any Infected Brews?

Anybody ever get any? I just cracked open a Kona Pipeline Porter. It wasn't a gusher - but it was definitely sour.

I had a bad (I mean REALLY bad :shock: ) IPA from Avery last year. Fortunately someone other than me actually paid out some money for it. I've had the same beer on tap at the brewery and it was great there.

Shame. I really liked the Pipeline Porter when I had it a couple weeks ago. Nice tasty easy drinking beer.

dood. the only bottle of brother thelonius i tried. it had this nasty fish-in-yo-face taste and aroma that everyone at the table recoiled from. still drank the beer, but had to wash the glasses 3 times to get rid of the smell! i'm thinking it was a contaminated cork and just a fluke. the next beer from north coast i had was the old stock ale and good-ness did it make up for it...
anyhow, has anyone else ever got a fish off flavor in their beer? whassupwitdat?

Old stock ale is yummy. I have always had good luck with Brother Thelonius, I love that stuff.\

Most definitely. If you have never had the pleasure of experiencing an infected beer. You haven't drank enough.
