Freezin’ Pleasin’

One benefit about living in Minnesota is the diminished need for a refrigerator.  You see in the winter, our unheated garage is the perfect temperature for storing beer.  Ice cold goodness, just a short stroll away.  No fridge required.

This strategy normally works like a charm.  Unfortunately, a really cold spell has hit.  Temps regularly hovering at or below zero.  The garage is getting pretty cold.

As part of the Paulsen Family Quality Control Team, I decided to Google a simple question, “At what temperature does beer freeze?”  The answer was surprisingly high.  27 degrees.  Oh dear, that poor beer in the fridge must be on edge.

Only one solution remains, drinking a sample beer every few hours to ensure that they are not freezing.  Hey, self sacrifice in the defense of quality beer is no vice, no matter if the bathroom scale says otherwise.
