I always check the date and will very rarely buy anything older than 3 months for an IPA, other styles are ok older than 3 months.

What I never understood is when Budweiser was putting a "born on" date on their cans. Yeah buddy nothing like a "fresh" can of bud light. So much of that rich complex taste is lost after 3 months
