I'm not sure if this applies to almond milk or not (I've never even tried it myself), but with soy milk you're supposed to watch for a bloated package, a thickening or discoloration (darkening) of the product, and/or a sour or excessively sweet taste.

When in doubt, throw it out!

I've used almond milk that was 2 months after the expiry date yet still unopened and it was fine. I made rice pudding with it. Once I open mine, usually lasts 2 weeks or so. If it's bad it gets lumpy and I've even seen it with moldy flecks in it. I usually take a sip (near the sink in case I have to spit it out) to check before I use it.

Good Luck!
