Just stumbled on 2 surviving bottles of my 1st attempt at an AIPA.
Efficiency went all to hell and it was really an overly bitter APA.
15 months later and I'm wishing I had kept a lot more bottles in a dark and forgotten corner.
The fruit punchiness (Citra and Amarillo) has become really subdued, allowing the delicious piney, resinous bitterness to come forward.
If I had any more bottles I would be entering it in all the comps this year.
What forgotten gems have you stumbled upon and how did they compare to the beer when it was fresh?
