Faced with the dilemma of tossing the batch or test it; if so, should the subject be human, animal, or insect. Possibly arrange a herf and if BCaxman does not surface in a couple days, toss it. Any suggestions??
If you were well sanitized you don't have anything to worry about in tasting it except flavor. Go for it, and report back.

If you're really worried about contamination or something just check around the meniscus area on the bottles. If there is no funk you are fine. If there is funk, you probably are still fine.
