Double Dog Dare Ya!

[hawkeyed]

Back in 2009 I brewed up a batch of wheat beer from a kit. It was poured into a corney keg and topped off with CO2.
Fast forward to present day, I just stumbled upon this still untapped corney keg. The question of the day is, should I drink it or dump it? I'm curious to find out what it turned in to. Anyone care to double dog dare me to take a sip? or will we be needing to call in the ambulance?

In was in the basement at a controlled temp of about 69F year round.

Pour yourself a sample. Worst case, it's vulture pi$$ and you dump it. Best case, it liquid gold and you'll never taste anything as good again. What do you have to lose? If it's bad, you get a keg back, if it's good....well, drink it. Ed

I think he meant could it have gone bad in some way and be potentially dangerous.

I believe because of the alcohol the answer is no. Then again beers do get infected so idk?

You don't have a hair on your a$$ if you don't pour a pint!

Agreed, how will you know if you don't taste it.

It certainly won't hurt you.

Unless you take a great big gulp and it is so bad that it makes you puke....

Is there still pressure? Just curious. How many damn corny kegs do you have that you can let one just sit for that long??? (We're new at this, and all my kegs are accounted for. Empty unfortunately....)

 

[brandonlovesbeer]

Still waiting for an answer.
Sooooo......

Did you taste it?

OP posts as frequently as he checks his corney kegs.

I hope he's alive.

 

[FVillatoro]

Damit guys! Hopefully he's not dead because you all insisted on him drinking it!

We should merge this with "don't do that"

 

[jcav]

Maybe one of the moderators should call his house and do a welfare check!

 

[day_trippr]

We should get our stories straight: It was the triple-dog-dare guy!

 

[MaryB]

One sniff will tell you if it turned to malt vinegar... or some nasty vile substance that needs a hazmat suit to dump...

 

[DOCTWITCH]

So? How did it taste?

 

[WhoDatDad78]

Like strychnine apparently. Note to self, don't leave wheat beers in fermenter for 8 years and then drink.

 

[stella_tigre]

He's pinin' for the fjords!

 

[Murphys_Law]

Should we start a "RIP" thread?

 

[jbunton]

I enjoy beer to much for it to ever be forgotten. That's some aged stuff. Too bad it wasn't in a barrel.

 

[WhoDatDad78]

You will not be forgotten hawkeyed, you will not be forgotten!
