I brewed a golden ale and a lager back in the middle of June. I then had a personal emergency and had to leave my brew alone for the summer. It has been over two months and both are still in their primary glass carboy fermenters. The golden has been at room temp (roughly 64 degrees) and the lager has been in the fridge at about 45 degrees. I did have a friend drop the temp in the fridge to about 34 degrees about 10 days ago. Obviously I never got around to performing a diacetyl rest on my lager. Both look very clear and free of molds or any other floating material. I am going to keg them tomorrow but am wondering if anyone has ever left their brew in a fermenter for 9 weeks and had good results? Like I said, they look fine so they probably will be. I'm more worried about my lager than the ale.
Thanks.
Thanks.
