The 70-year brandy is almost certainly drinkable. As for the wine, it
depends very much on what kind.
Champagne from 1973, provided the corks are holding up, will quite likely by
drinkable and possibly enjoyable (we had Veuve Cliquot ten years older the
other SUnday and it was very good indeed).
Beer, on slab, sounds to me like beer in cans - I wouldn't bet on those
being drinkable.
