Found Pepsi in Keg
|
|
Hello all,
I recently acquired a keg, sealed tight with a Pepsi seal and it it still full of Pepsi. Here is the problem, the date on the Pepsi seal states 1987.
Now I know thats old but the seal is tightly on there. So I dont think any air got inside.
Do you think there is a chance that it might still be good?

The flavor might be off, but it's not going to kill you.
If it was sealed, nothing got in to spoil it. If it wasn't sealed, then it probably would have leaked out by now.

Is it still under pressure? If so, drink up! Just get some really long line to serve it from.

I would expect it not to taste like a 'fresh' pepsi but, if it were spoiled, you'd know pretty quick..

I found some diet pepsi cans that were a few years old. When I poured one it had lost most of it's color, and didn't have much more flavor than carbonated water. I didn't look at the bottom of the can to see if anything settled.

Half of my kegs had old soda in them. I guess Pepsi must have filled them and when they didn't hold pressure they junked them, didn't bother the trouble with empting them. And most of them were sealed. I would bet that they are full but have not had pressure on it since the day it was filled.
I didn't try any of mine, so I can't say if it was still good.
