2009 youngs double chocolate stout still good?

not a beer i would expect to age gracefully, especially in the backroom of a random store. can might be better than bottle, but even still not worth imo.
unless it were next to free and then i might take a chance.

you might get some success in the cellaring forum as someone with specific experience may be experimenting with the luxury double.
Cheers.

 

I actually had a bottle from late 2009 a month or two ago and it wasn't bad at all!

 

There's only one way to find out...You tell us!!!

 

It will probably taste bland and have lots of sediment at the bottom.

 

I have 4 bottles of GI Honker's Ale from the same year hiding in my closet.

 

I bet you could not tell a difference between the ones you bought and the most recently released batch. It is in cans so it has not been light struck or oxidized.
