2. I've never had around long enough to know.

Alcohol is a good preservative.

3. From their website, I'd say no, unless it's ancient

Shelf life and storage

Baileys is the only cream liqueur that guarantees a totally natural product which delivers that unique, smooth Baileys taste for 24 months from the day it was made.

One of the keys to achieving this is the artful blending of the cream and whiskey - two products that are not normally compatible.

This is achieved through a combination of art and science and without the use of additives or preservatives, which results in the alcohol acting as a natural preservative for the product.

Baileys should be stored away from direct sunlight at temperature range 5 - 25°C or 41 - 77°F.

You don't have to refrigerate your bottle, but we recommend it - and it tastes even better when it's chilled!

Fluctuating its environment temperature too much will cause it to go clumpy - so try and always keep it roughly at the same temperature.

The storage conditions are the same for sealed or unopened bottles.

4. Sorry....

I have to say 'yes'... if it has chunks, it's definitely garbage. It's got cream, should be refrigerated after opening...

7. Not refrigerated

just out of direct sunlight like all liquor.

5. 24 months from time it was shipped

6. irish whisky?

Not if it's kept sealed and in a cupboard. I'd suspect the flavor might be damaged by long light exposure, and leaving it uncorked would be the kiss of death. Otherwise, I recommend a taste test.

10. it tasted fine but i got to the bottom of the glass

...and there were chunks. :scared:

8. One word: Jameson's.

No cream content to worry over.

9. Not as long as it's stored in a cabinet.

I had some Bailey's out of a two-year old bottle just last week, and it was fine.

[MrScorpio]

13. I've never had some in my house long enough to try

I can't bring myself to even think of it.

[progmom]

15. i rarely drink at home

progdad doesn't drink.

[Ready4Change]

14. Yes, from personal experience.

I kept an unopened bottle, wrapped in a paper bag, in a box, in a closet, for about 10 years. (Long story we don't need to go into.)

When we opened it it was clotted. Quite a shame, as I love that stuff.

Now, in 2 years, I don't know. But in 10 years I can definitely say yes.
