I opened a bottle of my barleywine tonight and shared it with my oldest son. It has only been in the bottle for a month and I wanted to try one. what shoudl I expect at this point carbonation wise? It had a definite alcohol bite but I know age will smooth that out, but it was still completely flat. Overall I can see it aging into a vewry smooth nice beer but I would think there would be some carbonation...not even a PSSSSTT when I popped the cap off.
