Shelf Life & Storage
Beer is best enjoyed fresh and stored correctly — a key consideration for importers and distributors.
Best-before dating
Each product carries a best-before date; typical shelf life depends on the format and product. Exact best-before periods are specified per product in the export documentation.
Storage conditions
Store cool, dark and upright, away from heat, direct sunlight and UV (which can cause “lightstruck” off-flavours). Consistent, cool storage throughout the supply chain protects taste and quality.
