3 hours is not it.
I put one in at 10 when I started watching Survivor on ReplayTV and just remembered it.

this sounds like an experiment worthy of more testing.

It wassn't a Beano Beer was it? I'd hate to see one of those exploded all over the freezer.
I never go beyond 1 1/2 hours. Unless I forget too.

I prefer to make an ice and water bath in a cooler or even the sink over the freezer. The bath can get the beers cold in about half the time. Plus, you don't run the risk of forgetting.

depends on the freezer
Beano beer doesn't freeze, the alcohol content is too high.
An ice bath, a combination of a full container of ice and water to the (near) top (depending on the amount of beer you add) will chill beer to totally drinkable temps within 15 minutes.

Of course liquid h20 conducts heat much better than the air in a freezer, but I don't want to go to the trouble of creating an ice bath all the time when I don't have one already cold.
If you have convection in addition to an ice bath, you can chill a beer to the ice melting point in less than 10 minutes what with the reduction of the boundary layer and all... The same basic principle that makes a bath seem hotter when you move around in it versus just sitting still.
However, I didn't ask what was the quickest way to chill a beer... I just wanted to know what was the wait associated with just putting one in the freezer.
On a somewhat related note, has anyone ever put one in the freezer for somewhere around 2 hours? If you don't jar the bottle too much while removing it from the freezer and while opening it, the ice crystals won't form until you pour it into the glass... It's really cool to wach the liquid beer turn into slush as it hits the bottom of the glass.
I think an ice bath.Originally Posted by Beano's Fourth Chin
I like beer slushes.
... that's not food.
Hooray beer!!
I'm impressed that Beano went three leisure hours without beer.

How do you forget a beer? poor beer.

I've heard the ice bath method works even better if you add salt to it. I always forget so I've never tried it out.
Sounds like beer ice cream now.
