As temperatures continue to rise, I’m sure many beer lovers have already brought their favorite brews home. But at this point, do you ever pop your beer into the freezer? Here’s a word of caution: please don’t—because not all beers are suitable for freezing. Let’s take a look at how to properly store your summer beers!
Bottled beer
Can bottled beer be frozen in the refrigerator?
When bottled beer is placed in the freezer, the bottle may shrink slightly as it freezes, while the beer itself expands. This expansion can cause the bottle to crack, potentially leading to an explosion. However, if you only leave the beer in the freezer for a short time—just enough to chill it without fully freezing—it won’t explode. So as long as you keep the timing under control, there’s no need to worry about your beer bursting.
How to store beer in everyday life
1. Beer should be stored at a temperature between 5°C and 25°C, and protected from light.
2. Do not expose beer to high temperatures or direct sunlight, nor place it in the freezer compartment of the refrigerator for rapid cooling.
3. Beer left outdoors in high temperatures should be allowed to sit for a while before drinking.
4. When opening a beer bottle, keep the bottle as far away from your body as possible—especially avoid pointing it toward sensitive areas like your eyes. Never attempt to open it by biting, slapping with your hand, or using the sharp edges of tables or stools, as these methods can easily cause the bottle to explode and result in injury.
Now you know whether putting beer in the fridge could cause it to explode. In fact, not only is leaving it in the freezer for too long risky, but storing beer in a high‑temperature environment for an extended period is equally dangerous—especially in the trunk of a car during summer. So be sure to store your beer properly.
