Delurk - newbie- love reading your posts but I don't believe that I know
enough about beer - yet! I bought a bottle of Piraat and one of SN Celebration Ale last night at a local bottle shop (the only bottle shop in Pgh). Anyway I left them in the car overnight, the low was 7degrees. The Piraat did not freeze, but the SN was slush. My questions a Did the higher alcohol content of the Piraat keep it from freezing? I put the frozen beer in the fridge. Will it be drinkable? TIA - Barb |

In the best of shape? Possibly not for the beer, but certainly they'll be no harm done to you if you drink it. |

Not sure where you were, but D's Six Packs and Dogs in Regent Square has like 800 different beers in the back (warm), probably 300 of them in the cooler up front for consumption on premises and a half dozen (usually) good beers on tap. Mix and match all you want. Lots of interesting Belgian stuff too if you're into that. Garry |

That is exactly where I was, it was packed. We wanted to sit for a while
and drink a few, had to go up to Murphy's and wait till the crowd thinned out!

Maybe, but it might have been the bigger bottle if you got the 750 ml. > I put the frozen beer in the fridge. Will it be drinkable?

news.verizon.net sat down at the computer and pounded the following into
the keyboard: > I put the frozen beer in the fridge. Will it be drinkable? When worrying about frozen beer, the biggest thing to watch out for isbursting of the cap. If it bursts completely off, it's obvious, but you also need to look for minor deformations that just barely break the airtight-ness of the seal. If everything looks good, chances are your beer is too. -- \\\\\ ----> <---- \\\\\\\__o Bringing hedgehogs to the common folk since 1994. __\\\\\\\'/__________________________________________________ ______ Visit http://www.hedgie.com for information on my latest book, "Waiting for War," published by Aventine Press! |
