We moved unexpectedly due to some family issues 6 months ago. I had ingredients that I moved with us for a couple of batches and upon moving in and settling a little bit I decided to brew. I brewed an Irish Red in March and placed it in primary. Well, life got busy/complicated and I either didn't have time to or just didn't want to mess with it. If finally got to the point that I just forgot about it.
Four weeks ago, I decided it was time to get back on the home brewing horse and to finally deal with the batch that had been in my closet for 5 months in primary. Knowing that this was not a high ABV beer I was fully prepared for my first dump ever. I was very surprised that it not only smelled and looked just fine, it also tasted good as well. I kegged it up and am happy to say it tastes GREAT.
I feel very lucky and have brewed three batches in the last two weeks. Here's to getting back on the horse and getting lucky with an EXTREMELY long primary (not to mention replenishing the very sad kegerator)!
