My experience was that stubbies taste terrible but I haven’t tried a can yet. I have a heap of cans at work of full strength Great Northern that will be chilled again once the fridge is fixed.

Ive done this a few times (stubbies), tasted no different to me.
What is the general time after the use by date? You've got at least a few months correct?

It was left over piss from a function and my cousin was storing it at the function centre he manages. I said that I’d buy the 72 cans for $100 that he quoted. The fridge died and now they’re hot you smart campaigners!

So you bought second hand beer from another Lebbo?
Wise investment strategy

I haven’t and won’t be paying for them. Possession is 9/10ths of the law in my book and he still has them.Well pop those tops and get rat arsed my friend because they are going to taste like s**t the more you wait.

It's 100% a myth for mine, at least with all the mainstream beers full of preservatives.
Maybe if you left it in the back seat of a car in 40 degree heat for a few days it might change/ruin it.

Cans are fine. Stubbies that get warm and then cold again should be ok if not exposed to too much light. Which is why pubs that keep stubbies in glass front fridges with fluro lights on them should be shot. Beer goes as foxy as cats piss.

$100 for 3 cartons of 2nd hand beer? Where's the mates rates in that deal? He saw you comin bro...
P.S It will be fine to drink.
I think the issue here is nursing the drink to avoid getting his round in?

Yeh mate. Do not talk over me, ok!
I have had a TED's freeze in the back part of an old fridge , when the ice melted I put it back in the fridge to cool, and I couldn't pick a difference, but that Tooheys extra dry.
Other dry brands I think are brewed with what they call the cold filter system and maybe it's different.
Look that is a guess I don't know for sure, but the beer tasted the same. I have had other older brands become flat after freezing?

Depends on the type of beer. What you are saying reminds me of chill haze forming permanent haze. Basically when beer is cooled during maturation it forms a chill haze. As it warms this haze disappears, but reforms when chilled. If chill haze is present it will form permanent haze at room temperature. Once formed it will oxidise/age quicker.
Your macro breweries (and others depending) will chill the beer after fermentation, allow cool haze to form so it can then be filtered cold. This helps prevent permanent haze. Their beers are designed to maintain a long shelf life.
However, beer is best drink fresh, and any increase in temperature by 10°C will rapidly increase the aging process. Beer is best stored cold to prevent this.
So the cooling, warming and cooling may not be an issue per se, but the warming definitely would. It's just a matter of people have the palate to pick it up.
