How to store IPA

[andyg55]

I have a batch of IPA that has just finished conditioning. Everything was bottled. Do people store their bottles upright or on their side in the fridge? Any one reason better than the other?

Upright so any sediment collects in the bottom

As far as I know, the only reason for storing a bottle on its side is when it's sealed with an ordinary (not composite) wine cork. These would dry out and shrink if stored upright and allow increased oxidation.
