How long does bright beer and rough beer last?


Bright beer has a shelf life of 7 days unopened. Once opened we advise consuming in 3-4 days irrespective of the container type. Rough beer will last longer if stored under the correct conditions, however once open we again advise that it is consumed within 3-4 days. If you’re struggling, get some friends round.

What is the difference between bright and rough beer?

Bright beer contains virtually no yeast. Most of our beer is sold in this format as customers can just collect and drink it immediately. Rough beer contains yeast and needs to be left stationary overnight for the yeast to settle. The main advantage of rough beer is that it lasts a little longer once opened, 99.9% of our customers don’t like the idea of waiting though!!
