    About a week. I have had it over the past few years and always end up with a ton of worm like sediment.

    I had Old Cudgy 11 and 13 side by side last week on tap. I have now resolved to never drink one less than 2 years old. My goodness, it ages like a champ.

    edit: I know what your thinking and no, there was no 12.

    If the floaties are making you ill....don't ever pour a Heady.

    I have not experienced this yet, but I echo the sentiment about "pouring a Heady". You'll have a heart attack! :slight_smile:

    You have the Old Wormudgeon Ale, it was an off-year release.

    Those are parasites that are often found with yeast, they can be deadly. Send beers to me for parasite removal.

    The one I poured from bottle last week was fine and had no floaties. Beers in the past that I've had floaties, I agree with the OP though...it looks like vomit and a turn off regardless of the great flavor. Its hard to get used to.

    I'm certainly not the only one who gets kind of excited when I see floaties, right? I'm actually looking forward to pouring my first Heady.

    Opened an '09 Nemesis yesterday. I got some yummy sediment but nothing that resembled worms. The aged B vitamins made me feel like Popeye.
