Beer doesn't expire after 3 months. As others have said the "freshness date" thing is just a marketing ploy. It's more accurate to say it's best to drink it by the 3 month date, that's when it's most fresh is all. It's probably fine for another 3 months after the date before it starts to turn from shitty beer to even shittier beer.

My issue is not the beer, its the PR hit. We continuously are dealing with non-football issues in the National Media with this team. The circus does not cultivate a winner culture.

It's hardly a front page story in the sports world. Nobody is really going to care.

Why toss out perfectly drinkable beer? I could understand if it were a year old but 3-6 months is absolutely fine. It's a best by date, not a hard expiration date.

No , my guess was the beer distributor screwed up or their driver .

In a perfect world, DS would be on the proactive in making sure the stadium experience is top-notch. But in the real world, much like the guy who owns and runs the day-to-day of my job, he's more reactive than proactive. You can bet DS is well aware of the problem now, and has probably already taken steps to ensure this doesn't happen again. But before this report came out, you can bet he probably had a million other things on his to-do list than worry about whether the beer is fresh at his stadium.

I am not one to defend Dan Snyder, but do you really someone from the Stadium concessions management called Dan Snyder to get his ok with selling expired beer?
Whats next, the toilet paper ran out in your stall and Dan Snyder did not change it?
Concessions are run by an outside company like Aramark or Levy Restaurants.
When it comes to the beer sold at arenas or stadiums it is a big contract with Budweiser or Coors Etc. This terribel move was made by a mid level director of food concessions. Not a billionaire team owner.
