Q. Does the taste of beer improve with age...similar to wine?
A. No. Beer is a food product...the fresher the better. Budweiser is guaranteed to be fresh for 110 days from the "Born On" date printed on the bottle label or bottom of the can. Always store your beer in a cool, dark location.

I think that this really depends on the beer in question.... for American style lagers this is most certainly true. For some other styles, such as a double or triple Boch, they require time in the bottle.

He he he... I still have two bottles of stout in my fridge that I brewed over 3 years ago. Over time the quantity has dwindled as I get curious to see if the beer is still OK, I open the bottle take a taste and it is still just as good as it was. I only get to do that two more times
