So, my Dad and I recently built a kegerator for him in his expansive shop, which is also the home of my brewing equipment. We immediately loaded a keg of my dunkelweiss in it which had been kegged for about a year and a half. (It was originally bottled, but was poured into a keg and force-carbonated due to some carbonation issues I encountered).
Since this beer was so strong at over 8% ABV, it was safe to age for some time, but I had some misgivings about it before we connected it. I was wrong to doubt, though, as it seems to have become a very mellow, smooth, and malty treat over time. My dad, who is an avid fan of Aventinus, obviously loves this style of beer, and he enjoys that he has this version on tap. He calls it his “Quantity Beer.”
