mushroom 12,747 Posted June 10, 2013 Report Share Posted June 10, 2013 Well, ya cocky lab loving twat I genuinely couldn't put my finger on the answer. Walshie is correct though. Not sure what caused the beer to spill though.... Guess that as the water in the beer turned to ice it expands forcing some of the beer out. It's called expansion Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Malt 379 Posted June 10, 2013 Report Share Posted June 10, 2013 Wait till Born Hunter sees this thread,.....he'll have a right hardon.... I might start a I-Pad one now so Malt dosen't feel left out...................."The Geek's of THL !" Imagine Apple and Flymo combine and make an I Pad that cuts the grass i reckon Malt will come in his pants......... He'd be sweating like a dyslexic on countdown if that happened butty, it would be like XXX porn to him. Can't believe I'm getting double teamed by a ginger skirt wearing transvestite and a fecking dwarf wannabe sheep shagger, it's like a real life version of a Terry Gilliam animation from Monty Python's Flying Circus!

paulus 26 Posted June 10, 2013 Report Share Posted June 10, 2013 when we lived in Germany i use to store crates of grolsch on the balcony, only problem was sometimes it got that cold that it froze and forced all the flip top open, but when a can freezes it doesn't explode Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Not sure what caused the beer to spill though.... Guess that as the water in the beer turned to ice it expands forcing some of the beer out. Thing is, ice doesn't cause that much of an expansion. As that little youtube clip pip put up shows. Just curious that it made a mess...... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

WoodsmanJim 160 Posted June 10, 2013 Report Share Posted June 10, 2013 (edited) My mrs's old house mate once put a few bottles of champers in the freezer for quick chilling. short time later we took one out, drank it and forgot about the other two till the morning. One had frozen solid but was fine, the other had exploded and filled the whole top of the freezer with champagne flavoured slush puppie!! It would've been lovely but it had 1000's of bits of glass in it don't know why one went, but not the other one. Maybe an inherent weakness in one bottle that the other didn't have.
