i happened to go by the LHBS and the owner and i started talking. he commented that my recently bottled heffe should be fully consumed in the next 4 weeks or it will degrade in quality. From everything i have read and learned and whatnot i thought that the first 10 days of capped is just conditioning for carbonation and flavor development. this point is the soonest you should drink it. then you have 1-3 weeks of aging which lets the flavor profile really settle out into a good beer. if my calculations are correct this is at the 4 week mark and now the beer would be "bad?" is the man full of S&*t?
