You have to brew faster or bigger batches.How the hell does anyone have anything left after 3 weeks?
1 batch, about 1 month
In the Dec 07 Zymurgy Charlie Papazian reviewed bottles of homebrew going back to the first AHC competition that he had stored, and none of them went bad, some had not held up but most of them he felt were awesome...We're talking over 20 years worth of beers.
It's going to really depend on the style and the recipe...Barleywines may not even come into their own for years and if properly stored may be good for decades.
A hefe on the other hand should be drunk really young..
I've tasted year old bottles of beer, and none of them had gone downhill either.
Ah yes, the "sipping through yesteryears" article. A great read!
Yep....I wish it were available online as a point or reference...This question seems to be suddenly getting asked a lot...I think this is the 4th time in a month someone's asked how long HB can be stored.
