From: marc at marcobrau.com
Subject: Vintage beers

Every so often I give a few of my beers to my parents who drink some and
stash the rest. Last year I found a bottle of a winter lager from 1998. It
was still drinkable (again, a little oxidized) but still fairly tasty. It
seems that homebrew of even a modest alcohol content will stay drinkable for
a long time.
