What are everyone's opinions on the impact of priming with sugar vs force carbing on the amount of time a beer needs to be conditioned to reach its best flavor? If I have a beer that I prime with sugar and referment in the bottle will this beer hit is prime sooner or later than the same beer carbonated in a keg? Have any of you done an experiment?

Thanks,

Anthony
 
Any fermentation process will require time for the beer to finish up.

I find that force carbonation is faster as you skip the waiting time for the yeast to do its job and then wait for them to fall out and the flavors to mellow out and meld together.
