- How long does homebrew beer last in the bottle? How long is homebrew beer good for? Will my homebrew beer go off?
All questions we regularly get asked.
So we put it to the test - we saved a bottle from selected brews and kept them in storage. The result - two cases of beer with bottled between 4-18 months old.
And then we did what we do best - tasted the brews. - Jak na to + styl

Interesting, I wonder if there is any difference between all grain and kits ?? Great video.
I did an extract kit (grain steep, big bag of goo and the hop additions in the boil) from 3-4 months on the flavour never changed, I drank my final bottle at 12 months old and it was the same as 6 months old, its was called Doom Bar, good video cheers 🍻
I had some beers infected (in bottle) with brettanomyces. Lots of funk and no body left meaning that on top of the barnyard funk the beers were bitter. They improved slowly for about 5-6 years in the bottle as the bitterness and funk slowly disappeared but never got good enough to drink. I would expect a good beer could be aged for years, it will just taste a bit more bland.
Fair comments. You make an interesting point that I didn't really cover in the vid that infections of various types can change the equation completely.
@@homebrewrepublic1993 a good beer that's old will be way better than a fresh beer with an infection. My point in the original comment is that beers do keep for almost decades in my experience.
Hi, ive just found about 20 home brew kits,over 15 yrs old, i know the yeast wont be good but will the tinned malt be ok ? Cheers jane !
Hi Jane. I would leave them. Most kits are published with a best-before date that tends to be 1-2 years from production. You are probably best to leave the kits you found. Cheers, Russell
