OG 1.063

Kegging Day

Gravity is super high at 1.080. It is cold, somewhere around 35°. There was ice at the top of the carboy.

Mold was growing on top of the ice and in the liquid part.

The beer seems to have not fermented. The cold beer had a gravity of 1.080 and the OG was measured around 1.060. We didn’t taste the beer, but the smell was enough to make us gag. We’ll have to chalk this one up as a failure and pour it down the drain. Not sure what happened with this one. We’ve never had a mold problem before.
