    So a while back, last year I think, there was a thread going about how to understand the best by date for Ithaca Brewing company.

    A very insightful BA explained how one can tell what date the beer was bottled on based on their best by date.

    So for example if the best by date on a sixer of Flower Power was June/2012, what would be the bottling date for the said sixer?

    I remember the same topic, wasn't it three months?

    The thing is I don't remember anything from what the BA said. 3 months sounds good. Not sure.
