Well Chilled

[Moley]

First thing this morning, outside temperature read -5.3*C.
Kitchen was around 14°, cellar at 8.5°.

However, cellar is full, I have run out of space for beer storage and also need a far bigger wine rack, so I have also got beer up the garden in a brick built shed. I thought I should go and check it, temperature was -1.0°C.

What's the freezing point of beer, 5% abv ?
Should I be finding somewhere else to store it, or just drinking faster?

You may end up with beer lollies coated with mosaic glass!

That's what I was afraid of, but 5% alcohol is going to reduce the freezing point to below 0°C, I just wondered if anyone knew by how much and whether this is going to have any adverse effect on my beer.
