Too Long in Primary?

[runt23]

I have made a couple batches of beer so far and I have had a coopers canadian blonde in primary (plastic bucket) for over 5 months now. I just didn't get to it. I am wondering if it will still be good? I just took a look at it and it looks healthy, smells healthy, and tastes good - should it be fine?

I am looking to purchase and set up a keg soon so I don't have to deal with bottling all of the time (thats the main reason why I didnt get to finishing this beer. I didn't have time to sanitize and bottle it.

Thanks

It will probably be fine. After that long there is definitely more potential for flavors to be present from things like yeast autolysis.
