Why does beer?

Question

freeze just curious cause isnt alchohol not suppose to freeze ? lol =)

Answer 1

While the average American is 3-5% alcohol (Budweiser, Miller, etc), most microbrews and imports can go as high 18%.  So, yes it will freeze faster due to its higher water content.  And yes liquor will freeze, it just has to be colder for longer.  I have managed to freeze a bottle of vodka.

Answer 2

it has to have a certain percentage of alcohol to not freeze. Beer is usually only 5 to 6 percent alcohol.

Answer 3

All alcohol freezes even hard liquor, At -170 degrees, Beer freezes in your freezer because it contains a lot more water then alcohol....

Answer 4

i don't know.it's never in the fridge that long.

Answer 5

There's not much alcohol in regular beer.  Totally sucks.  That's why you have to drink so many to catch a buzz.

Stick with hard liquor kid.  It works a lot faster!

Answer 6

mostly it doesn't have much alcohol in it but ya shouldn't freeze it coz the bottle or can might burst

Answer 7

it has the carbonation in it that helps it to freeze

Answer 8

yeah but beer is only about 3% to 5% alcohol (depending on the brand of beer) so it's not enough to keep the rest of the ingredients in it (water, hops, barly, etc) from freezing
