Mario’s Closet

Updated 4/25/08

Check this page to see what I currently have in my closet. These are typically beers that I am allowing to age or simply just don’t have the time to drink quite yet. Feel free to share your experiences and questions on anything you see here. If the beer isn’t part of a special release I will list the year it was bottled in parentheses, if known. If I have multiple bottles, I will list the quantity in brackets. If I have written about the beer in the past, I included a link to that entry.

A quick description of my closet. It’s a closet, pure and simple. I’m not sure about the temperature fluctuations and will probably be moving it to a new location. This closet also serves as my homebrew closet so it may be a bit on the warm side. I’m confident the beers are doing ok, staying on the floor, in a cool corner.
