Ok, i read a lot of previous threads on this and see most people agree with proper sanitation beers can last several years. Especially darker and stronger beers. For me i have found brown glass bottles keep the longest grolsch and plastic bottles do not last more than 1.5 years. The brown glass i have some that are 2 years old that still taste good.
I have found my hoppier beers IPA'S and pale ales taste gross though the hops seem to be the first to go for me than the carbonation.
I store mine in the basement now but did not always so it stays fairly cool they are all in boxes in the dark.
I wonder is there anything i could add that would make them last longer?
Also i am not sure why my hoppy beers taste like ass aft 1.5 years, when other people say the hops extend their life. I have other beers the same age that taste good.
