Fuel Question...Age?

[Bob Pastorello]

I know this is a newbie kind of question...but I've never run into this before.  Sealed (good caps, tight) jugs in the dark, Mag 1/10% mix that I use all the time.
    Ran my 1.60 fine on the ground, but couldn't get a needle, and sounded lean at high end in flight; even dead sticked a couple times.
    Changed to a jug of fresh Ritch's Brew 15% (should have been about the same nitro) and it ran a lot better, had needle range, didn't try to overheat.

What can happen to sealed jugs, kept in temp.controlled, dark box....??
