How long is too long for cold crashing?

[wagesgt903]

Long story short have a pale ale that's been in my kegerator cold crashing for about three months. Gonna go ahead and put it in the keg and see what happens but Amy thoughts on whether it's still good or not?

If it's at cold crashing temps(35-40F) for all this time and you haven't been opening it up a lot it should be fine. Cold temperatures preserve pretty much everything, beer included.

Now the hop aroma might be affected so before kegging you could try warming it up a little to the low-mid 60s, then dry hop in the fermenter for a few days to give it some more aroma.

Sounds a lot like lagering to me.

It will be fine.
Kegged and cold beer can be stored for months and it is just a-okay.

That's what I was thinking. Hopefully it works, I'm ready to have homebrew on tap again. It's been too long.
