Well, the last bottle of Dirty Dick's I possess, with a 'consume by' date of April 6, 2007, is just making beer history here as I sip at it! RIP :-(

Well, I've got 4 numbered bottles of their Centenary Ale, with a drink-by date of 4th April 2007.
With an ABV of 7.5%, I'm betting they'll be good for a lot longer than that, so I'm not touching them yet!

I'll join you with a bottle of 'Kew Brew' - they don't expire until June.

Shouldn't their centenary have been in 1931, when use-by dates weren't invented? What have I missed here?
I beg your pardon. It is in fact their (175th) Anniversary Ale.
I'm not sure why I posted "Centenary", having just been to check the bottle before I did.
Unfortunately, I think it wasn't at its best :( It started off with a fruity nose but finished with a kind of 'off-taste' Between time of purchase and me receiving it, there was a couple months delay.

Shame to have a less than perfect last bottle of it.
Still, only so many distinct flavours of beer can exist, so with so many brewers these days, the exact stuff you want must be out there somewhere.
Unless it's draught Double Chocolate Stout.
Yeah, I was a tad disappointed but that's life!
There are quite a few beers I like here, especially from a brewery called 'Baird Beer' Engrish page here:
Now, although it is tasty I think half a pint is as much as I can take of that. I think the 500ml bottles are too large, unless you share it with someone. One craft brewer here does what they call an "Imperial Chocolate Stout" OG: 1.090 ABV: 8.2% IBU: 47. It's usually one of the first brews to run out at festivals.
