When you get one, don't fill it too full just in case the power goes off. :DQuote:

How come if you leave a beer in the freezer, the bottle explodes?
It's done by the beer-fairy. The beer-fairy punishes you for leaving beer in the freezer by smashing the bottle.
The beer-fairy don't like beer in freezer for too long.....
Don't know, I've never wasted good beer on the experiment. https://www.ubeaut.biz/drunk2.gifQuote:

Nah - he's not the real beer-fairy, Gra. He's like the Santa's that you see at shopping centres, trying to create a distraction from the real Santa.
The beer-fairy's that you speak of (as well as the fake Santa's) are too large and burly to creep into your house and smash your frozen beers (or leave gifts under your tree).
The bottles don't explode, the beer which expands (as do all fluids when frozen) simply pushes the top off.
I know this well, as I am so doughy I forget to keep the beer levels up in the fridge, so have to put a pack in the freezer, which I then also forget.
I remember from my time in FNQ that you would usually buy a frozen slab to take away from the boozer. I guess the aluminium tins have enough give to cope with the increased volume of content. Made sense, the frozen slabs, cause by the time you got home they were ready to drink.
But if you use Qld beer it's OK:pQuote:

See, that was my point. Fluids expand when they are heated and contract when they are cooled, so why do they expand when they are frozen?Quote:

Also wouldn't know 'cos I don't buy it.... :cool: I did say GOOD beer. :rolleyes:Quote:

The physical reason for this is related to the crystal structure of ordinary ice, known as hexagonal ice Ih. Water, gallium, bismuth, acetic acid, antimony and silicon are some of the few materials which expand when they freeze.....
