Does it matter the type of beer, the style of beer, bottled or canned?

It tastes just like the crappy swill that it tastes like when fresh. I did once have a 10 year old lowenbrau in a bottle that was the most putrid thing ever and it was definitely "bad". This sounds like a job for Mythbusters. I have heard that "skunked" beer(warm,cold,warm,cold) was a myth but cannot remember ever trying it myself. I did have some Guinness activated cans go bad once from heat damage. The activator thingy just would'nt work for some reason. I doubt any of this helps but what I always stand by with leftover food is to look,smell,taste. If it tastes good to you than eat or drink it.
