What to do with frozen beer?

Beer was on sale so Meg picked up some extra for me to have on hand. I had put some in the shed to keep it cold and save room in the house and then we had a week of freezing weather. It was 2 days later when I remembered that the beer was in there so when I went to check on it thinking it was froze to my surprise it wasn't, it was just super cold so I thought I would be ok, so I just left it out there. Then the temps dropped even more, were talking about lows at 2 deg F and maybe if were lucky highs at 20 deg F. That's when it froze. As you know once beer freezes that's it, game over, the beer WILL taste like crap. Since summer is a long ways away I knew I wouldn't be able to use it for cooking, so I needed another plan. I didn't just want to trash it, so I decided to conduct an experiment and thought I would line them all up outside and see how long it took before they exploded.

Day 1

Day 2

Day 3

What is going on? If I leave beer in the freezer over night and part of the next day it explodes, so why am I having such bad luck? Then I thought maybe it's colder in our freezer...so let's find out.

I had to use what I have on hand.

A wooden skewer stick and a digital thermometer.

Tall glass of H2O.

I soaked the stick in olive oil hoping this would coat the stick and keep the stick from absorbing water then freezing to the ice making impossible to remove.

Ready for deep freeze.

See you tomorrow.

Well that didn't work at all the stick was stuck to the ice like a ice-pop. Now I have to think of something else...ok so I took Vaseline coated the stick generously then wrapped it in tin foil and back into the freezer.

IT WORKED!!!
As you can see it's been a lot colder outside then it gets in my freezer.

I was now out of ideas and was going to give up it must have something to do with a freezer being a closed environment, then I went outside this morning and...

Payday. Can 9 exploded.

Only one but it will have to do, the good old ice chest still works best.
