Default Glue shelf life

...
In this past year I read an article in one of the woodworking magazines
where they explained how to decode the numbers printed on the glue bottles
of the leading manufacturers. As you can imagine a year shelf life is not
a long time unless you working on a big project and to buy glue that's
been sitting around...well you get the picture. So I can't remember where
I read it & I can't find the info on the net and I need to get some
titebond lll & was hoping to be able to determine how fresh it was.
Anybody else know this info?

Somebody gave me a bottle of Titebond as a gag gift. About 8 years later I
actually used it. Worked fine.
This was before I got into woodworking, obviously.
