According to Cicerone.org bottled beer if refrigerated will last up to six months, Unrefrigerated only three months and then off flavors can start to occur. I'm bottle conditioning imperial stout with an ABV of 8.5% in my closet which varies from 60-64 degrees. I plan on leaving it in there for at least six months. Should I have them refrigerated for conditioning? I hope I can upgrade$ to kegging in the very near future. When I condition my Beer in a Keg the same question I pose to my brethren, Should the conditioning kegs be refrigerated as well?
