    Well I have 1 can left so.

    You've put a downer on things!

    Okay hands up, this didn't work out as planned. Was gonna go for the things getting stranger thing, like some creepypasta, and start misspelling posts and so on as I described events getting darker and darker. But it all turned out to be wonderfully boring. The out of date cans were absolutely fine. I actually nearly followed all of Trance. And I'm just the in the usual 7 cans in with 1 left form, maybe slightly better than the 7 pints in pub stage when I'd be trying to figure out a way home.

    Some years ago I stayed in a small country hotel in Dorset. Genial host remembered that he had some Irish beer in cellar. Brought up a large box of same which I proceeded to empty into my epiglottis with gusto. Well after midnight my wife noticed that the sell by date had passed three years earlier. This shocked me but after genial host apologised and cleaned my slate, I decided that the honour of my County rested on my finishing the whole kaboodle. Which I did and woke the following morning with no noticeable effects.
    Don't remember the taste much as I'd had a few snifters before the "discovery".
    :D

    I assume you mean beer 1 year after best before ? generally alcohol is Best before. The taste degrades over time. It is a preasureised vestle would have been pasteurised at some stage. Ever look at a date on a bottle of Whisky being handed around ?

    You are honour bound to take a drink of gone off beer. It's one's moral duty and right of passage.

    Drank some out of date cans before, tasted disgusting. It wasn't just my imagination either, since I only checked the expiration after I'd already noticed something off about it.
