RE: Drinking a 5 Year Old Homebrewed IPA - Is It Worth Waiting?

in BEER3 years ago

HAHAHA!!! I’m glad it’s not just me :)
Very once in a while I crack open an old loser, typically just to find…it still sucks 🤣

I did do a batch a few years back with green tea and basic white sugar. It was offensively dry, I think from my sugar selection, but 3-4 months ago I took a sip and it was less harsh.

Of course, the reason I opened it was because I needed the gallon jug it was in, so it still got dumped out in the back yard :)

I think this will be me in a couple of days. I will open one of them in the "loser vault" haha.

That's good to know. When I started I added sugar to stouts to amp up the alcohol and they also mellowed out over time.

I feel this will be the sad fate of my remaining beers when I need the bottles! (Or the bad batches haha).

HAHAHA!!! Well said :)
