Yup. If you were reproducing for all you're worth and some dude kept tapping you on the shoulder, asking "Are you done yet? Are you done yet?"... you might make bad odors just to fuck with him too.

Never dump any beer you are uncertain about unless you absolutely need the storage space.

Today my refrigerated hydrometer samples smell and taste good. I began cold cashing the fermenter a few days ago. took a hydrometer sample today, and the fermenter still smells funny but the sample tested okay.
