How Long can beer stay in a glass bottle?
I bought a home brewing beer kit. All it comes with is the plastic amber bottles. I know it can not stay in there long because of the plastic. I bought clear gallon jugs for my beer instead because the amber glass jugs are expensive for me. How long can I keep my beer in the clear jugs and if not for long can I use something to cover the jugs to protect against light damage? Like tin foil or something?
If it is a high gravity beer with an alcohol concentration above 7.5% ABV it will last for years. I have had lighter beers than this good after a year. Just keep the beer from light and in a cool environment and it will be fine.

The beer is fine if you avoid light. Foil will work but is awkward. Try a dark cabinet or basement free of direct light. But you can use a towel or tarp if you want as long as it blocks the light.
