okidoki987

Found some cans and bottles of beer that expired Aug & Oct 2010, still safe to drink or throw them out?

RichieC

what kind of beer.. if its heiny or bud it's going to taste like Sh*t..

if not look online and see if the beer is cellarable.

Sanjuro

I drank beer older than that. Funky taste, but no harm donafohjfsap;hfefhbgbe;wg

Safe to drink, may taste a bit funny. There's a slim chance, depending on the beer, that it tastes better.

Drink them. We shall tell the rest of society the result. You may die but if you do we will tell your story

Such as with Budweiser.

Naikon

Drink the beer op. Out of date beer is still safe to consume. It isn't an old slab of meat now, is it?

AckwelFoley

Pfft, ive drank beer that was a lot longer out of date than that.

It was so far out of date i needed a tin opener to open the can and eat the beer with a spoon

Groinshot

Open them, if they're flat don't drink them. IF they're not, Then they're fine

One of the brother's friends downed 4 cans of Guinness that expired in 2009 in the house there a couple of weeks ago...


I'm sure I would have heard if he died

Guinness is the only one if it is out of date I avoid, but then again, I dont drink lager. All lager tastes vile to me, in date or not.

Tho I did have a few out of date cans of knacker champagne (bulmers) last night, wasnt all that bad.

What type of beer is it?

This s the question that we need answered first....

For example, if the answer is Budweiser or Miller... Then you shouldn't be drinking them even when they're in date.

Old beer= trots.

My thoughts exactly.

Fancy a pint?

I've drank out of date beer, not that bad. Just drink them

Agricola

It will probably taste a bit odd. If you care anything about the taste of it dont bother.

Apparently apparently Guinness is best when it's slightly out of date. Don't ask me how or why, but there have been many a conversations with alcamaholics and each and everyone has told me this.

Still..I don't think I would try it.

I think that's only the gassy bottled ones. I heard that before with them. But a keg of gunniess that has gone off is completely fùckin rancid.

I've had out of date Guinness, tasted odd to me. Wouldn't recommend it.

I'd give them to the homeless.
But if you're hard up, just to go the offie, buy the same amount of the same cans and get a receipt. Go back later and show them the out of date cans, swap em for new ones.

Old manky cans of Dutch FTW!:p

Boxes are timestamped, you know.

I found a can of cider dated 2004 a couple of months ago, it didn't taste the same as a recent vintage, but safe enough.

Its best before, not unsafe after.

The plan is to end up on top of a young slab of meat.

jimthemental

Op if you throw out beer you're going to have to start pissing sitting down and wearing a skirt. I think that's the law anyway....

questionmark?

FFS drink the beer. Wasting beer is a mortal sin and you will go straight to hell where Hitler will want to be your bum buddy.

The IMF need to see this, even those uptight buggers will be able to understand how bad things are and that we will eventually default.

Celly Smunt

everybody knows beer matures better than a fine wine or bottle of cognac,however 2010 was a bad year.

slavetothegrind

somebody once took both miller and budwiser and made a new can of piss called carling.

if you think the beer tastes a bit off have a sip of carling, that should make you realise it is not that bad after all!

carling might taste bad but it's an excellent wife beater

It's good... But not excellent... For a truly excellent "beat tha wife" you have to go to the old reliable Buckfast Wine. Toenails and all.

Staplor

You guys gotta get your asses to Limerick, Carling is gold there, in Dublin it's ****e, but there's something magical that happens to Carling in Co. Limerick.

slavetothegrind

No staplor it's something about limerick that makes carling seem good.

What the hell were you doing letting beer go out of date?

Mine would never get the chance, it barely gets to see the inside of the fridge never mind be there long enough to go off!!

Beer is like sex. Even bad beer is good.

Swap 'em for 6 cans of Man-Up.

And to rebrand an old joke as it were, drinking Budweiser is like making love in a boat - fúcking close to water

bradyle

i've only tried it once...and while the beer was grand.some of the cans were rusted...not fun to discover halfway through a slab :eek:

Finding beer is like finding the gold at the end of a rainbow. Someone up there is looking down on you my friend. I'd go out and do the lotto too.

I kissed an out of date Fat-Frog and it turned into a Prince!!
