>> There are few rules.

Okay, I can understand that.  So how about a specific recommendation for a
specific case?  I am about to move from Austin to Galveston and would like
to take along some of our local brew, Shiner Bock.  (Shiner is the last
locally owned brewery left in Texas; furthermore, while Shiner Bock may not
rank with some of the fancy imports that cost twice as much as it does, it
is head and shoulders above the yellow fizz-water that most people around
here drink.  It's definitely a very good beer, if not a great beer.  I've
located Shiner in Galveston, but only in cans (yech!).)

So my question is: if I buy a case of longnecks, keep them out of the sun
and try not to let them overheat, how long can I expect their contents to
remain drinkable?
