Red Racer - freshness
Red Racer - freshness
What do we know about the freshness of Red Racer in the LCBO these days?
Once upon a time, there were dates on the bottom of the can.... not any more.
I bought a number of unlabelled cans in the Fall and was quite disappointed.
Last week, I gave them another shot, and was pleased to taste the great Red Racer again; so I bought a few more at a different store and they taste old.
I'm not really willing to roll the dice on freshness, when there is so much other great stuff out there.
Thoughts?

They're nice, but you have to hope it will come as a better value in the 16oz cans, though they may use this as a chance to up the price since Ontarians don't seem to have an issue with higher pricing.hops are your friend wrote:Thanks.

Am I the only one who sometimes prefers 12oz cans instead of 16?
