I grew up a gallon of 1030 wort and pitched wyeast lacto, left it for about a month at room temps. It settled at the bottom. I got curious about what it would taste like, so on Friday I drank about 3/4 OZ of the wort. It was bitter sour, with a horrible weird funk to it. Just as a reference I love just about all sours, my favorite being Cantillon.
It was not the smartest thing that I've ever done. I know that lacto is naturally occurring in the digestive system, but the two different strains must have not gotten along, or maybe they teamed up together to create a boss from transformers equivalent. I felt fine for the whole day, Well until about 11 hours later, 2AM. That lacto really messed my system up. I woke up, found my way to the bathroom, where I remained for the next 15 min or so. I could not believe what such a small amount of that was capable of. I know that it was the lacto, because of the overwhelming sour smell. Anyone who has had a decent amount of sours in an evening knows what I'm talking about. If you like the smell of sours, sour beer is essentially a "poop-perfume".
The way there is no point to this, just ramblings.
