Cloudy Wherry safe to drink?

[Hoppkins]

The wherry i made (which had a bit of a sluggish fermentation...i had to repitch) is still cloudy after 4 weeks in secondary. I have added finings to little avail.

It tastes ok but is it safe to drink this really? I've heard stories about people getting real unhealthy from drinking cloudy beer..

Yes

I've heard stories about people getting real unhealthy from drinking cloudy beer..

Stop listening to them then
If it tastes good it is good
You will only become ill if the cloudiness is from a bacterial infection and if your beer had a bacterial infection it wouldn't taste good and as you have already tasted the cloudy beer and not fallen ill
It is more than likely still yeast in suspension.
Draw off half a pint and put it in the fridge. If it is starting to clear from the top in an hour it is yeast in suspension.
So you could either wait and it will settle, or just drink it

When your guests arrive, give them a gift bag containing some super soft toilet roll, a jar of Nivea and a Spatula

That just made me laugh outloud in the office.
Cracking stuff.

Especially the spatula.

Dont have any Nivea. Anusol will have to do
