The time it takes for a beer to get cold in the freezer depends on the freezer temperature and the alcohol content of the beer.
Generally, if you pop a room-temperature beer into the freezer, you can expect it to chill in about 20-40 minutes.
Keep it in mind; otherwise, you’ll find an icy explosion later!
Consider wrapping the beer in a damp paper towel for a quicker cooldown.
Here is a detailed article on how long to chill beer in the fridge.
Avoid leaving your beer in the freezer too long because it can freeze… and explode!
Beer is mostly water, and water freezes at 32 degrees Fahrenheit (0 degrees Celsius).
The freezing point of beer can vary based on factors like residual sugars and alcohol content.
The average beer with 5% alcohol by volume freezes around 27 degrees Fahrenheit (-2 degrees Celsius).
To play it safe, remember to set a timer!
If you want added protection, consider putting the glass bottle or can in a plastic bag.
Covering your beer with ice in a cooler or bucket usually takes around 10-12 minutes to get nice and chilled.
If you submerge them in ice water, you can further speed up this process.
Aluminum cans cool down faster than glass bottles.
It’s a better conductor, so it quickly transfers the coldness of the ice to your drink.
Vodka marked as 80 proof has an ABV of 40%.
This means that a 12 oz (354 ml) beer with 5% ABV contains about the same amount of alcohol as a 1.5 oz (44 ml) shot of vodka.

As you enjoy your drink, enjoy learning all about beer alcohol percentages!
A standard pitcher of beer typically holds 60 oz, equivalent to 5 standard 12 oz glasses of beer.

Different factors can affect the weight of a 12-pack.
Cans weigh less than bottles.
Beers like blond ales and pilsners weigh less than stouts and porters.
But generally, we’re looking at anywhere from 10-45 lbs.
That’s 4.5-6.8 kgs.
A basic conversion tells us that a 16 oz beer weighs around 1 pound (plus the container it came in).
Beer is not typically considered flammable.
It has a relatively low alcohol content, around 4%-6%, which is not high enough to ignite.
Please note that alcoholic spirits, like vodka or whiskey, are flammable and should be handled cautiously!
The standard regulation size of a beer pong table is 8 feet long, 24 inches wide, and set at the height of 27.5 inches.
The distance between the cups might change depending on whether you’re going for a 6-cup or 10-cup game.
In a 10-cup setup, you’re looking at roughly 65 inches between those two front cups.
The number of beers that would be equivalent to 100 shots depends on how big the shot is and the alcohol content of the beer.
As a general estimate, assuming a standard 12 oz (355 ml) beer with an average alcohol content of 5% would take roughly 33 beers to equate to 100 shots.
That’s not something you should take on yourself!
