    I went into Yankee spirits in Sturbridge yesterday and they were having a sale on all JA sixers, $7.99. The bottle date on the neck read "mfg1439042015". I took this to be army time, and a date of 4/20/15, but I'm not really sure, went with it anyway for the price. This format was only seen on hoponious union, every other JA beer had the "drink lager" stamp with month/day/year format clearly on the neck. Most of the beers were bottled in early March so hopefully the hoponious is fresher, the guy working assured me it was. If anyone has clarification on the date that would be great!

    Correct, that bottle was filled on 4/20/2015. We recently added the time to provide more information for our QA/QC team to track down any potential problems.
