Yes, it's very satisfying to know I can "fix" this problem now, even on a 11% ABV beast like the 9-9-9 Barleywine.
HAHAHA! I just finished clearing a bunch of s#*! out of the way, and I pulled my bucket of Barleywine out of its' cabinet that it has been hiding in (...since 2008... ...on its' primary yeast cake...).
The airlock has been bone-dry for at least a year, so I assumed it was infected.
Not the case. It is CLEAN. It smells like caramel boozy heaven.
I am cleaning a keg to put it into. (At the rate of speed I'm moving at, it might be kegged within 2 more years.) Once I carbonate it I'll let you know how it came out.

So, what ever happened with that keg?
Who's still sitting on any quantity of this? I've got a wooden crate with a bunch of small Coke bottles full nailed shut in my basement still. Haven't cracked one in a year or two but after tasting the 2012 Boltcutter it might be time to pull one or two out...
I still have a portion of that keg kicking around from this brew.Is anyone still drinking this after 10 years or so? I'm thinking about brewing this... is it worth it?
Are you serious???? Please try it and let me know!!!I still have a portion of that keg kicking around from this brew.
Hmmmmm
