yes...6 month shelf life i think. i wonder what SAB has done, must be dumping entire batches if things carry on, might be some good beer specials incoming after the lockdown.


Well it will live for another 5 months then.

The Brits will polish that lot off the day they open the pubs.

Only if it had just been ordered before the shutdown. They almost certainly have stock with a best before of a week or three into shutdown.

Does beer go off ?
depends, typically mass produced beer has all the helpful, healthy enzymes and bacteria filtered out when it is bottled, drastically reducing its ultimate shelf-life but with little need for temperature control to get normal longevity out of it

bottle conditioned (or at least a segment of "craft") beer would have a virtually unlimited shelf-life, provided temperature remains within norms (i.e. temperature control typically needed) and with hops being a natural preservative your pale ales and IPAs have plenty of protection by default

then you get your barrel aged or even Lambic beers that live in a barrel for about a year or more minimum before it ever sees a bottle

so it depends, mass produced pisswasser spoils fast, real beer just continues to mature, like wine
