    I'm terrible at tasting warm, flat beer and being able to taste much. Neither was particularly bad. I didn't gag or anything. I didn't really get a sour taste. But this is a pelicule (sp?) for sure, right? Should I keg it?

    This is the WGV that I used the suspect yeast on. It took a couple days to take off and I ended up pitching dry yeast. I think that might have been the problem.

    This and is it worth your time to keg something that in a few weeks you decide is nasty enough to not drink. Time is money and your time is valuable. I would dump and write it off.

    Bottle it instead of kegging, then just pitch the bottles as you go.

    It might turn out ok if it sours, if it tastes like bile though.....

    Use the bottles for target practice.

    Is there a chance of bottle bombs?

    My only ting here is more time spent bottling something that might suck. The time it takes to bottle you could have a new batch going.
