    Digging through the stash to pull some stuff I stumbled across a sixer of this. Can't remember if I purchased it in '09 or '10. The original intent was to age it for three years IIRC so this could be the upcoming winter for it. Admittedly I haven't researched my question much and I'm being lazy hoping someone knows off the top of their head. Thanks for any help guys.

    Victory give OH (as well as Storm King) a 5 year shelf life for its "Enjoy Before" dating.

    The 5 years is a conservative estimate for the Old Horizontal. I had some last year that were from 1998 and 1999, and they were out of this world. I'd hold onto them for a whille if I were you.
