    So I didn't intend on cellaring the below beers, but I ended up with a bunch over the past year. The problem is that they aren't cellared properly and temps have ranged from the low 60's to the high 70's over the past 2 months.
    -How long will these stay reasonably drinkable and not completely ruin?
    -Which (if any) need to be opened now vs. later?
    -All beers were purchased within the last year.
    Thanks everyone.

    If you can get them somewhere cool and regulated, they should be ok. If not, invite friends over and drink them

    i know florida weather and i couldnt imagine trying to regulate cellar conditions down there. Best bet is to enjoy them while you can!

    Looks like the lineup for a Freshness Tasting Event.

    My opinion. Those beers are all still going to be amazing. If you can keep them below 65 yo can hold them for quite a while longer. Ideally you'd get them around 55 though. Again, my opinion.

    The only ones I would even consider keeping longer would be the sours and the wwww, maybe the sucaba Drink all the others soon.
