I had 2 batches of cream ale, and I kegged one batch but have never gotten around to kegging the other (or racking it to a secondary). So it's been sitting in the primary bucket since mid January (temp was maintained at < 70 for 3-4 weeks, but since then the temp has fluctuated since I haven't maintained the ice rotations in my chiller).
Anyways, just wondering what everyone's opinion here is...do you think it's still good and should I keg it? Or the fact it's been sitting on the yeast sediment this long and has some temp fluctuations as late likely mean it's gone bad?
I'll have no personal heartbreak about having to dump it, since I originally meant to only brew the 1 batch and wanted my 2nd keg for some other type of beer..but I hate to waste good beer if you guys think there's still a chance it'll turn out fine?
