How long does drink keep?

godtabh

Have a half bottle of southern comfort in the fridge. Its been there a while!

I plan to get blind drunk tonight but will this make it permanent?

Any booze that can go off will have a "use by" date on it.

Drink away.

Check the best before date?

No.

It will last a pretty long time... considering it is in the fridge and all. I know it is not the same, but think of the really old reserves I know they are kept differantly, but still... it has the potential to last a long time. Beer on the other hand might only last as little as 6 months O.o Check the best before dates on your bottles when you drink in the pub, you would be surprised how often it happens that beer goes out of date

It'd be fine once it was in the fridge

If the alcohol percentage is > 10% then bacteria do not grow. The alcohol acts as a preservative. If it's Southern Comfort it'll be grand for a long time.

Whosbetter?

Can't help on this.

No drink lasts long at my place.;)

Southern Comfort is a whiskey isn't it. Would you normally put whiskey into the fridge.?

Drop it on the floor and bless it before drinking. It will be OK then!

Southern Comfort is a liqueur which was originally made from burbon I believe. I should probably know since I drink it in such incredibe quantities. Best drink ever. Delicious straight, delicious mixed.

I have an unopened bottle of southern comfort.

Which will go to the highest bidder :pac:

It's been there a while though..

Stout is the worst for keeping, followed by the pint cans of 'big' breweries. I think brown glass bottles are the best for beer IIRC. Whiskey will last pretty much indefinitely opened or otherwise as will Vodka. SC being a whiskey-based fruit liqueur will probably taste a little... complex after a while, but it won't kill you. The only things you really have to watch out for are the likes of Baileys, Tia Maria and Amaretto; but you shouldn't be drinking the bloody things in the first place so it's your own fault.

In Texas, Southern Comfort comes with a warning label that reads:

CAUTION: NOT SUITABLE FOR CONSUMPTION AFTER DATE OF MANUFACTURE

I found a bottle of Southern Comfort in my granny's house from what must have been the 70's or 80's. And there appeared to be some mould or something growing inside it. So I don't think it lasts indefinitely.

Interestingly, It used to be something like 50% ABV back then. Rather than 35% or whatever it is now. We're getting ripped off.

Not true, I have an unopened liter bottle of Huzzer Vodka that is well over 30 years old. my local said that it would keep indefinitely.

Can I get some proof on that? Sounds funny.

Is there a best-before date on cans of beer?

Can't say I've ever thought to check that.

I had really never considered it. Likewise with soft drink cans.

Maybe I associate them with stuff that has preservatives like canned food.
