This beer was fermenting normally for about 16 hours then foamed heavily. I guess its infected but I don't know how, usual strict precautions were taken. Outgassing like crazy.

unless you pitched a shit load of infecting bugs (like your dog barfed into the fermentor or something) there's no way an infection would show up so dramatically after just 16 hours. Sounds like your yeast is just really happy and filling your headspace up with foam.
