    I apologize if this has been asked before, but I'm having trouble figuring out exactly when some of my cellared beers were brewed. I know when I bought them, but there isn't a date on the bottle as to when they were brewed. They all do have a stamped code on the bottle, which I'm hoping correlates to brew dates. Is there a website where I can type in these codes and see when they were brewed?

    There's a few sites if you do a search, and some breweries either have the codes online or will reply to you in email if you ask them.

    Make sure you are looking at date codes labels - not any code on the glass/aluminum that is the bottle/can manufacturing info.
