Results of my warm beer "experiment"

[Stefan]

I didn't set out to do this on purpose, hence experiment in quotes. But back in the beginning of October I bought a 1/2 keg of Paulaner Okto which meant I had to do something with my sixtel of Victory Lager. I couldn't make it fit in my regular refrigerator, so I had to keep it in the basement. My basement was about 70 when I first put it down there and now it's at 60. So, last night, my Paulaner finally blew. I put the Victory back in. I cleaned the beer line earlier today. And I just poured myself a beer. In several threads I have brought this situation up and everyone said that the beer would be bad. But on this other beer forum that I frequent, the people told me that I had nothing to worry about. So I have been looking forward to this for a while to find out how the beer will taste. Results are in:


The beer tastes exactly as it did when I took it out. Good flavor, not flat. And I am not keeling over in sickness.
