Works for me. If Old Horizontal starts coming out in June or so I'm all over that.

I wouldn't mind if everyone started putting clear bottling dates on their products.

On one occasion I got some old Samual Smith's Winter Warmer that was skunked bad enough to repel cougars.

I've bought it twice, and it was skunked all to high heaven both times. I'll start buying Samuel Smith's when they start buying brown bottles.

I believe Samual Smith's Winter Welcome is Dated With the year and is released the end of Sept. or the beginning of Oct.

Which would mean that the stuff MOC is carrying right now could be as much as a nearly a year old.

That's a year in a clear bottle, under fluorescent lights...
