    I hope you aren't suggesting we go off topic. As you know, that is strictly not allowed :wink:

    won't matter. going from cold to warm is no big deal; happens before the beer gets to you anyway.

    while you did "slow down the aging process" for however long it was refrigerated, it's doubtful that this will make any noticeable flavor difference at all when you open the bottle in several months or whatever.

    (that said, if i had the whole set and was planning to have like a vertical epic party or something, i think i'd refrigerate 11.11.11 the whole time to keep the pepper flavor from dissipating)

    If you drink a refrigerated VE 11, a mini-Greg Koch will bust out of your chest.

    I'd play it safe and get another one.
