99 bottles of beer on the wall
I just opened up an old box in the garage and found the very last bottle of Förnikatör, probably from my very first batch - 15 years ago. Such a waste not to share it, but I couldn't let this discovery go without popping the top. Damn this stuff is wicked. Time to lock down the keyboard for the night - so I don't type something I'll later regret.

I still have a bottle, Mike. Are you telling me I shouldn't let it sit around much longer? Or should I put it up on craig'slist?

I believe your bottle is about 10 years old. Best to drink it. Beer doesn't improve with age like wine. If it's any consolation, I'm now working on a 1994 Sam Adams Triple Bock that was in the same box. Tastes like soy sauce and motor oil. The Förnikatör was far from its peak, but it was still 100 times better than the Sam Adams.
