It's pretty good! Definitely have room to improve, but it tastes alright. And now I have beer for the next 3 weeks...

Depends on the style. An IPA won't last as long. Won't go bad but may oxidize and get some strange flavors.

Now that I think about it, do you remember how and, more importantly, why IPA style came to be?

Although modern "IPA" with less than 5% ABV is nothing like the good old one, and nothing like what I brew for that matter.
