    I was looking at bottles of Full Sail Session Lager and Session Black Lager. One had a "best by mm/dd/yy" date stamped on the label, the other just had a date mmddyy on the bottle itself.

    For the bottle with just mmddyy, is that a "best by" date or a "bottled on" date? And which format is the current Full Sail format? Thanks!

    Quick question. I keep seeing the phrase "best buy" in BA threads, shouldn't this be spelled "best by" as in "best consumed by (date)"? Just a pet peeve but it's come up just one too many times. "Best buy" doesn't really make any sense unless you're talking about a troubled electronics superstore... or perhaps a guaranteed low price.

    I've just see this misspelling/typo a lot on here, not just you & wasn't trying to single you out. Was just wondering if there's some other meaning I've been overlooking.
