Drinking beer thats past its best before date.

I recently aquired 3 boxes of Miller, 20 bottles in each. 2 of them have best before dates of the 28th of March 2012, the other one is in January. Anyone know if they are still safe to drink?

It's only a "best before" not a "use by" date.

And it's Miller. Could hardly get worse.

We do not provide safety advice on this forum. If you consume it you do so at your own risk. We do not want posters coming back saying "I drank this because the people on boards said it was OK & then I got really sick. It is all their fault."
