I was in a 'spoons when a manager heard a colleague spout that rumour. The manager promptly invited us for a tour of the cellar. The barrels and kegs all had a date on them and we were shown the rotation procedure. I was impressed.
Of course it depends on the staff following procedures on how 'fresh' the beer you drink is and how thorough they are on cleaning the lines. We were told every time the barrel is changed.
