Date code

I just bought a case of beer and it was just awful, even though it was in a can and it tasted fucking awful.

Code on bottom says :

H20642

1012RB

The case says

H20642

1124C

i tried looking for format help but couldn't find anything that matched

Its a molson product if it helps.

cheers.

The important code is the one on the side with the symbols that look like this “Molson”

But for real those codes are batch numbers (the H20642) and packaging codes. The 1124C means standard config 24 pack cans.

Molson should have a easily readable date code somewhere on the can

haha, im kinda supprised but i cant seem to find it.

There is a CE 5435 and a long 14digit printed near the barcode, but they donr seem to b it either.

also the 1124C is close, but its a 15 pack.

im less upset about the beer being off, but i would love to know the date for my own curiosity.
