I've never refrigerated it and I buy fairly large bottles that might take 6 months to use up. I eat it in uncooked dipping sauces, as well. I think it will keep indefinitely.

It's fermented fish made in Clay pots left in the sun for fuck sake, consumed by countries that still don't have a refrigerator in the majority of households. You'll live.
