2 important beer questions
I rarely drink but got curious about one of my questions so just drank a beer.
Question #1 Do individual bottles of beer expire? what time frame. (this caused the drinking a beer it did taste different but no alcohol in six weeks might be the issue)
Question #2 What % of that last swig of my beer was spit.

There should be a date on the bottle.
Why are you spitting in your beer??

The bottom of the bottle will have the most alcohol in it so finish your beer. Expiring beer I don't have any experience with. My brother is currently doing an experiment with certain beers to see if its possible to age a beer like wine. If I hear anything I will let you know.

I don't know what ab03c128 with 20:09 on the next line means? mexican beer modelo
Every human backwashes, narrow mouthed bottles take many swigs to drain a beer, hence the question i'm thinking logically circa 15% but was wondering if anyone knew of a scientific approximation (I get a person that takes bigger swigs would have a lower %)

Commercial beer will not age like wine. It's due to the caps not being completely air tight.
Commercial beers (from Miller/Coors, Bud, the like) is best consumed in the first 3-6 months after it's brewed and bottled. Preferably in the first 3 months, rather than closer to the 6.
Generally speaking, the higher ABV (alcohol by volume) percentage, the better it will "age". Depending on what types of caps are used, is it kept cool and completely out of sunlight, you can age craft beers. But not all craft beers.
Your Modelo would be considered a commercial beer.
In regards to your question about spit, I wouldn't worry about it. With Modelo there's very little difference in taste...

Most beer doesn't age.
Even when you brew your own, beyond what it takes to ferment and clear, it doesn't age, it gets skunky.
If I chug a beer, I'll drink the last sip, but if I'm just sipping it, I'll leave a bit in the bottom of the bottle. Mainly due to it being warm, because I'm careful not to get a lot of backwash in there. When a beer starts to get warm, I'll down it so I can get a cold one.

I have a friend that's a beer expert. he has (had) a website Ill try to find a link.
Q: How long does beer last once I get it?
A: Beer is a perishable item. Beer isn't meant to stay in storage for long periods of time. Beer can last longer when the bottles are dark tinted or canned but it should be consumed fairly quick. Unlike wine beer isn't safe to drink after a long period of time. This is due to the comparatively low alcohol content in beer. Simply put, there's not enough alcohol to preserve the other ingredients in the beer. I should note that this is for only normal beers. Beers with a higher ABV content will store longer under the right conditions. A beer with a 10% ABV will store longer.
