    I just picked up a 6 pack of Westbrook IPA and noticed born on dates on the bottom of the cans. Although Im dissapointed that the sixer I got is almost 2 months ago, I am happy they are dating cans now!


    PS-disregard if this is something they have always done and I just noticed now...........but I think its a new thing.

    Excellent news. Love Westbrook's IPA and will be much more likely to spring for the price point when I can confirm the age of it.

    Yes, they've been doing this a while and it is GREAT. Everyone should do this. IIRC Coast was the first SC brewery to date all their stuff and I'm glad to see others here do the same. Westbrook IPA is my go-to IPA now, because Westbrook is awesome.

    Is this similar to dating a fleshlight?
