Ever wondered what would happen if you put a couple of beers in the freezer to cool and forgot about them?

1. I’ve never seen frozen beer foam before, but it wasn’t interesting enough to justify the experiment.

2. Mmmmm, glass and fish fingers, my favourite.

3. *nelson laugh*

4. Shame on you, surprised you had the nerve to post this, that’s alcohol abuse.

5. to call it beer would require alcohol. these are just bread sodas.

6. Beer flavour crunchy ice cream, perfect for this weather

7. There’s glass in your mashed potato.

   Reminds me of the time I found some broken glass in my jam. I’d never have noticed had I not dropped the damn thing.

8. Encase it in some epoxy and call it modern art. For some reason it does have an artistic quality to it.

   Not sure what the meaning behind it could be but I’m sure there is one. Perhaps a commentary on how alcohol consumption can shatter lives if someone has a drinking problem, and how they can forget about their responsibilities. Or how some people drink to forget the woes of their own shattered lives. With both being able to add on how this piece is frozen in time (both by it being frozen and being encased in epoxy) much how many with drinking problems may feel as they can’t see an end to their suffering.

9. Done this many times with cans. The clean up horrendous.

10. When I was a student we threw an 18 box of bottles in our freezer (fridge freezer with the separate freezer compartment at the top) and sat down to play cards. We forgot about the beers and a good while later we heard a pop, wondered what it was, and then _the fucking fridge freezer jumped about a foot in the air and nearly fell over_, and a load of icy foam starting dripping out of the freezer.

    Turns out the second one must have caused a chain reaction and all 18 had exploded simultaneously.

    It absolutely _stank_ for the rest of our time in that flat.

    *Alright maybe a foot is an exaggeration but it left the ground and rocked violently. Shook the whole floor of the flat.

11. I put an empty bottle of wine into a firepit once it exploded eventually 🤣

12. Been there done that my friend.

13. Mmm, beer snow and glass shards.

14. Been there, done that. Champagne makes far more of a mess…

15. Make sure you don’t do this with a can of diet coke or it’ll look like your freezer has the squits

16. The last time I did this, it was Peroni too 😔

17. I guess I’ve been lucky since I’ve only ever had the tops pop off.

18. A tasty Beerglassicle.

19. I did this once with glass bottles of coke. The sugar in the coke made the clean up fucking horrendous.

20. Do you wonder about something you learn from experience when your 16…

21. 0% alcohol?

22. Poor peroni’s

23. Keep it cold as possible and get the tray outside asap , if it thores and decorates the rest of the goods in smelly beer its no fun cleaning everything

24. I’ve never wondered as I’ve done it plenty of times

25. Lager Slush Puppies

    And that’s why you always set a timer on your phone.

27. Forbidden slushy

28. I had a bottle of bucks fizz go pop in a similar manner. Right pain to clean up.

29. What’s really cool is when it’s a bottle of prosecco and the freezer is in a supermarket, and the closing manager doesn’t notice, and then the poor bleary-eyed cunt filling the freezer in the morning only notices just in the nick of time before shoving his hand into all the broken glass.

    I really don’t miss working in retail.

30. Where’s my lolly.

31. Now we need the TENET-thing.

32. Sadness… deep and real sadness

33. I did this with a glass bottle of Coke. Total mess, cleaning up all the little shards took bloody ages.

34. Wrap the bottle in a wet paper towel and set a 30m timer.

35. My sister did this a few weeks ago with a 2l bottle of sparkling water in the chest freezer.

    Plastic, everywhere

36. I could be wrong but I think they’ve done that because they’re zero alcohol beers. I forget regular beers in the freezer all the time and I think the alcohol stops them fully freezing and smashing.

37. If it wasn’t for the risk of glass shards, I would 100 enjoy that as a beer sorbet.

38. Forbidden Slush Puppie

39. Wife had a habit of doing this with prosseco

40. Those 0%? Lack of alcohol would’ve only sped up the freezing process.

41. Fuck. I’ve just realised I did this yesterday. I don’t want to check the freezer.

    I am just going to pretend nothing happened and check another day, it’s almost the weekend. I’ll check Sunday.

    Fuck.

42. My housemate’s girlfriend did this with a bottle of champagne when we were at uni.

43. Cool (!?)

44. I’ve put flavoured bulmers Cider in the freezer before and forgot about them but it never shattered the glass like that

45. Wow… How did you manage to leave them long enough for that to happen? You must have had sooooo many other beers.
