Beer not carbonating. What to do

[Baacktoberfest]

I just brewed a Scotch Ale for a competition a couple of months ago that ended up having an infection. It tasted like a really bad lambic. It was terrible.

Should it be totally undrinkable, all is not lost branlovesbeer just hang onto the stuff and use it for cooking. Use it to soak brats before and after you have grilled them. In addition to the funky beer, cut up an onion and add it to the pot/pan as well as about a tablespoon or two of butter. Put the pot with the mixture on low heat and soak the brats in it.

Chili also can benefit from the beer. Just replace any fluid measure with your beer and the chili should turn our just fine. Should the beer be so bad that you don't want to drink it, use it to put out grill fires. JM2cW

+1. After I sear any kind of meat, I use it to make a kind of Au Jus sauce. After pan searing pork, beef or chicken, take the meat out of the pan, keep heat up and add about a cup or two of the brew to the pan. Stir it well and reduce. Throw in the onioins and pour the whole thing over the meat and serve. You'll feel better about your failed beer once you've tried this. I promise.

PS-Don't forget garlic!
