Is there a best before date for beer? If yes, where do you find it on the bottle or can? I found a bottle of Heineken but can't find the BBD.

Beer store and LCBO can not sell beer 1 year after its bottled or canned date which should be on the bottle.
It may be possible it's on exterior packaging only for some brands, maybe beer store or LCBO employee would know that which won't help you out.
If your that worried about it, just chuck it.

Found this unopened bottle (still capped) behind some furniture. Don't know how long its been there or when the it was purchased. Showed it to a couple of employees at the Beer Store. They didn't know its BBD.
Get it appraised. Maybe it's worth something.
I once left an open bottle of beer under the table at the late beloved CB. When I returned the next day, it was still there.
Speaking of beer... A dancer once told me her customer in the vip ordered a Corona and told her to ride the full bottle for a bit, then left it on the table. Apparently the next guy who sat in that booth started drinking it. lol
Because beer can begin to breakdown in light, or heat… it is impossible to give it a best before date. Stored properly in a dark cool place, it will last a long time. Leave it out in the hot sun for a few days it will go skunky pretty fast.
I left a case of cans in my car for 3 days a few weeks ago, and I took it to my buddies bonfire. We wagered whether it would still be good. Lucked out…. It was fine.

Years ago there was a small notch in the label on beer bottles, the position on the label, similar to a clock face, indicated the month the bottle was filled. Not sure if they still do that.
I used to drink Sleeman Ale back in the 90s. They were in clear bottles and I'd often get a skunky one. Now I like MGD in the clear bottle, which is brewed in the US. I've never had a skunky MGD.
