A bottle of beer in the freezer

How long should a bottle of beer be left in the freezer to reach a comfortable drinking temperature? Any guesstimates? Although, answer fast! For God's sake, I do not want to freeze my beer.

Cheers, Brian

It is alleged that snipped-for-privacy@gmail.com claimed:

Until it's cold enough.

Indeed.

Here I found an interesting article on freezing beer . But they still do not say approximately how long it took to reach the point where the beer almost froze.

For a 12oz. bottle, 45 minutes works for me. 750ml takes at least an hour. A thick bottle like a Belgian with a cork cage is safe up to an hour and a half. BTW, I don't put cans in the freezer--no wiggle room there.

Of course, it's much faster to cool it down by putting it in a bucket of ice water.

Unless you're trying to make your own icebock.

Better is this:

From room temp to cold in 3.5 minutes. I'm thinking I could use one of these.

If you haven't done it yet, you should take it out now.

What they use to do in the engine room on "the boat" was take a CO2 fire extinguisher and place the funnel over the bottle/can. One quick hit would instantly make the beer nice and drinkable :^)

Yeah, just make sure you use that "no spin" option when you put your beer in it. Nothing like spinning a beer for 3.5 minutes to make it an exciting opening.
