That would be the maximum it is always better to sell cask ale quickly and also some brews last longer than others. A Cask breather will give you longer. I would try to sell keg ales within a week, quite simply they don't taste as nice after that. Once you start to introduce bottle gas into the keg that starts to absorb into the liquid. Co2 isn't as pure out of the bottle as it is in the brewing process.
