storing beer in these low temperatures

[philip5660]

Apologies if this has been covered but I couldn't find anything on it.
I am storing a couple of batches of beer in my garage which has been in the bottles for several weeks. We are currently enjoying temperatures of around -10 at night and the garage has dropped to around -5 at times.
Will these low temperatures harm my beer? should I bring it into the house?

I have got bottled beers in my workshop at work on a concrete floor which must drop pretty low. I not experiencing any problems in fact the beer is clearing after priming super fast. You will get problems if it actually freezes and then thaws cracking open bottles etc.

You could try insulating them by covering in blankets etc to keep any frost actually off them.

Cheers

My only issue is that I stuck a batch outside to soon after priming them and they're only getting carbonated very slowly. Otherwise no problem at all.

I think -5C will be fine. We had -20 a couple of weeks ago and I'm not sure what temperature it him in the garage but I found this (I had tidied up a bit before taking the photo):

holy dog sh*t, what a mess!
Hopefully I won't come across anything like that! the bottles aren't showing any signs of ice - i was more concerned about the quality of the beer rather than actual breakages but i can see from your photo that this is a real possibility!

My thoughts entirely and thats straight from my canine heart :lol:
I was worried about this sort of thing happening to 100 bottles in the brewery a few days ago, so set the heater at 2 degrees, as a low cost prevention .
Doesn't look like you lost to many but hey one is to many. :)
