Greetings, all. My first post here. Just wanted to introduce myself and thank everyone for contributing here. I've learned a lot reading your posts in the past couple years.
I have a batch of Imperial Stout that has been sitting in a primary fermenter (5 gal. carboy) since I brewed it back in November of 2011.
I ended up moving shortly after I brewed the batch and I never took the time to transfer to secondary.
So, quick question: Did I ruin this batch by leaving it in a primary with the yeast cake for over 7months? I'd love to salvage it, but won't waste my time if it's going to taste bad.
I'd appreciate any feedback.
