I just checked my bottles of IPA and they all seem to have an oily/soapy film on top of them. I dry hopped it with a bunch of cascade and some oak chips that I had soaked in bourbon. I popped one open and it had a nice head, smelled ok and didn't seem to have any sour flavor from an infection. I seem to remember reading that nothing bad for you can grow in beer, so I was thinking about just keeping it. Any thoughts? Could the hops/oak chips contribute the film or is most likely infected?
