I let my apfelwien go for around 6 months and never had a problem with carbonation.
I bottled it up last night. The 3 weeks helped it smooth a bit. It's a sweet stout with a good dark chocolate flavor (actual cocoa added). The bitterness from the chocolate is a tad higher than the balance with the sweetness, but I was sampling room temperature and flat, so perhaps carb'd then chilled it will improve or that last edge will come off with some time.
