There should be an expiration date on the bottom of the bottle.

There is no date on bottom, the date (near the top of the bottle) is the manufacture date of the tank itself. It is used because DOT requires tanks get tested every 5 years. Nothing to do with the nitrous in the bottle.
Like GM said, the actual Nitrous dosen't go bad.
