Vile hideous experiment - Krampus 2008

In 2008 the craft beer explosion was in full swing for me, I had a neat place to brew and a fantastic basement cellar with a room that stayed in the 50's year round. Cellaring was for me strictly an experiment with intent to drink years later and see how it changed alongside a freshy. In 2009 the horde moved to another, better basement in a hard to access finished crawlspace. I forgot about it, until last week...

Hit 88 mph to present day.

I don't think I had very accurate beer knowledge in '08, some of the stuff I kept had me scratching my head. I'm in this tiny space on my hands and knees hitting my head on stuff, holding my cell phone with the flashlight ability. There are hundreds of bombers that I had somehow erased from my memory. Complete verticals of really good stuff but there is also stuff that today I would know damn well not to even attempt keeping it around for 7+ years and consider drinking. Which is where I'm at right now with cramps and the I'm gonna vomit no I'm not yes I am dance.
No matter how much you think you should try cellaring a Krampus, don't.
It poured out beautifully, great carbonation, not a gusher. I thought it looked fine, smelled fine and wasn't flat so I took a generous multi swig with an uncensored swallow. It was after swallowing that I realized the mistake and instantly regretted my choices. Vomit flavors are abundant and that got the gag reflex going but now I'm only left with cramps.
The beer looked and smelled fantastic but it is no longer drinkable, which is sad because I saw other vintages of Krampus down there.

What are your worst cellaring choices? So far this one is mine.

I'm not really sure how it happened, with a combo of new job, school and career transition and add my forgetfulness somehow the accuracy of the memory faded out. BA Darkness jogged the memory, last night I had a 2010 Abyss.
