    I know heady doesn't date their cans..

    Just curious if anyone knows approx how many days they can before they hit a store in VT.

    So let's say they arrive to a store on a Friday morning .. We're they canned 1 day ago, 5 days ago?? Anyone have an idea.

    Cheers

    10 weeks old is best per John and I agree. 2+ months is best.

    Good Luck. Buy a better beer that cares to date their cans.

    28 days from brew date to canning. Canning day to shelf is that week. Two different answers to different concepts.

    This. You were basically buying them right off the line during canning day when the brewery was open to the public.
