Belgian Ales | What's Oldest You've Drank?

It's hard to find them aged, unless you want to buy something that has been more of display beer at a B&M and I do not trust store floor items for serious aging. Wines take a beating in the store during the winter. The dry heat can just kill wine and beer if you want to age. Most places do not have jero's of Chimay just sitting in the cellar.

This is the time of the year the importers start bringing them in, so now it the time to order a fresh on to age. They're usually about $150-200, so it's worth making sure this going to pan out in the long run.

I hope 10 years from now, I even have interest in opening a bottle of beer that big and expensive (and that I have enough friends to help me enjoy).
