Most disappointed beer from the cellar

Other notable ones from the past week or so:
BA blackout. In my humble opinion, not nearly as good after about 6 months to a year.
BBPT5 This is sad as it is on of my all time favorite BA stouts. Just opened one from 2014 and was not nearly as impressed as fresh.

 

Yeah mine had about the same age on it and it was good, but not nearly as good as what I was expecting.

Mine, ironically enough, has to be Lost Abbey Agave Maria. Others have reported off flavors and infection and mine certainly wasn't very good, especially in the aroma.

 

Totally agree. This was one of my first cellaring experiments & what is a great beer fresh becomes bland & dull after 12-18 months.

You on crack! BA Blackout fresh is good, with one year amazing, two years sublime. One of my top three aging beers...though your palate may vary.

And as long as we're downing popular beers, one I was really disappointed in aging was Expedition Stout. As the beer ages I get more & more dark fruit in it, & I'm not a fan of fruited stouts. Aged a six pack each year for 4-5 years, then traded them all when I realized Expy just wasn't doing it for me.

 

KBS from 2012 to the present.
They have been watery and have tasted infected (and not in a good way).

 

I do think Golden Monkey is a bit better at 1 year than fresh, however.

 

I'd be willing to do that experiment; however, 5 years was just too, too long.

 

2014 saison brett that i opened a few weeks back. Not sure if i waited too long or had a bad bottle. Never had it fresh so i cant compare it to that.

 

Opened a Mocha death from some brewery. My ex bought me 6 bombers of it for part of my birthday present a couple years ago. Drank 3 fresh (they were pretty good) and aged 3. Well I opened one up two weekends ago and it was just bad. I drain poured it. I don't know what to do with the last bottle I have.

 

I think my problem is I like to pick up a small amount of hops in my stouts, that small amount of bitterness is desirable to me (goes well with dark/bakers chocolate notes). I also prefer my stouts slightly thicker than BA blackout on average so that may come into play. Not saying it was bad, I just think I liked it fresh more.

 

No way you waited too long (I actually like it with 2yrs). What was wrong with it?

 

It just tasted off and was nearly undrinkable. I mainly drink sours, so I'm familiar with brett.

 

Mo Betta Bretta.

Also, I don't agree with poor aging results of Yeti variants. Had a 2012 Belgian Yeti last night and it held up pretty great. Also, had a Chocolate Oak Aged Yeti (can't remember if it was two or three years old). Also held up well. Both stored properly I'll add...
