    Since there are no cellars here in this part of TX, everything is pretty much in the garage fridge. So I'd say that there are 150-180 bottles in there right now. Top row is 4 or 6 packs that are more regular drinking stuff (approximately 50-60 bottles), while the doors, and bottom shelf, and the vegetable drawers are full of mostly bombers that are getting some age on them. Temp in the fridge is kept low to try to mimic cellar conditions as much as possible (which leads to a lot of "your beer isn't REALLY cold" comments from people who don't know better).

    I'm nearing maximum capacity, which I guess means I need to drink more....

    Thanx to you all. When I started this thread, I thought I was in the minority as far as the variety of beer I keep ready to drink [aka refrigerated] but from some of these posts, I can see I may be a lightweight. But I did forget to mention that IPAs are my favorite style for year-round consumption so perhaps a middleweight is more fitting.
    I guess it's time to stock up on cellared treats to be saved for the winter and beyond.

    I have around 35 different beers in my fridge, but probably 60-70 beers total, and another 12 or so "special" ones in my wine cooler. I'm a beer rep so part of my beer fridge is actually work related, and I have a specific shelf that is "work beers only". Luckily my family and friends understand that and don't raid that shelf.
