    Found one of these in the back of my beer fridge tonight. Had to be from at least early December. So, at least 4+ months old.

    Nice presentation with a huge 4-finger head. Both the aroma and taste had "aged" a bit from the more fresh offerings. The hop flavors are not as "sharp" but still present. A bit more malt flavor and a bit more sweetness than when "in season."

    Overall, this is still a very drinkable beer. Kudos to SN for making quality brews that still age well, including hop-forward beers.

    I would buy it in July in the warm section.

    I DO NOT care what the hop snobs say. While they may drop off a bit, a quality beer that you enjoy stays a quality beer you can still enjoy, even after 4 months.I drank Sucks last year in May. Loved it.

    You may get some grief, but God bless you and your Celebration brother! Glad you enjoyed it!!!

    I came here thinking you were going to tell us all about your son/daughter's 4-month Celebration AKA birthday.
