    So a buddy of mine just found two of these sitting in his work fridge and gave me one. They've been in there since 2002. I'm curious as to what type of aging, if any, has taken place since its been refrigerated the whole time.

    I plan on drinking it along with this years batch.

    Refrigeration slows down the aging but doesn't stop it. It would be interesting to see which year of a cellared Bigfoot it most resembles.:wink:

    I would anticipate a malt bomb. Nice find.
