I bought it in Nov 2019, so it's been through 3 x 40+ deg summers and 2 x 4 deg winters.BillaRickaDickay wrote: ↑June 28, 2022, 9:14 pmThe reason I ask, I didn't realize canned and bottled beer has such a short shelf life, Heineken 6 months from the date stamped on the Tin/Bottle.

Threw a few into the fridge and taste tested, no difference as compared to newly purchased 4XXXX - finished up consuming the whole lot - NO ICE! Too bloody cold here anyway.

Should be asking "who in the world admits to buying, and then drinking XXXX beer".

BD was my guide and mentor way back last century as we searched for Esso's "energy for Australia' in darkest Qld. The beer of choice on the campsite was XXXX and being able to identify and thus avoid a pre-frozen bottle of piss by the blue metallic-looking tinge on the brown stubby was a rite of passage.

Re: Icy cold beer
While living in Florida, a friend and myself would order a pitcher of beer. We would both pour our mugs full. then the waiter would drop a baggie full of ice in the pitcher. I kept the beer fairly cold but not icy cold.
Re: Icy cold beer
That's how pitchers of beer are kept cold in icehouses, bars and the likes of Hooters in Houston.
