What does your beer fridge look like?

Lucky man. Hopefully I'll be able to do that soon when we move out of your tiny one bedroom apt.

 

As do I. I don't have room for more than 4 - 5 bottles/cans at a time so I usually have a variety of styles in there. I can't be sure in advance what I will be in the mood for very far in advance. Sometimes I come home and have to put something in to chill if I don't have something close in there. Usually have to balance it on the milk bottle...

 

I'm a craft rep and love beer so I have my beers in 4 places-
1) 3 bottom shelves of my fancy wine fridge - about 30 bottles of rare stuff I am aging or potentially hoarding for no good reason. I'm trying to visit this section more regularly as I fear they are getting past their prime.
2) 2 shelves of my white wine fridge- cellaring stuff that I will drink sooner rather than later
3) one shelf in my regular fridge - immediate use stuff for consumption or sampling to accounts
4) a full sized fridge in my garage for just beer. Half is work samples, half is other random beers that people have left at my house or we just haven't gotten to yet, some are homebrews people have given me to rate.

 

Current fridge situation result of some successful runs to TH, and VT and a nice trade for a bunch of Tired Hands IPAs. Also got a NE IPA hombrew in the keg that is presently kickin all those beers asses....(to me anyway.....).

 

Sadly, no keg(s) currently. Hard to brew frequently with a 2 year old! Cheers!

 

Yup. Home depot sells 10 packs of them for around $3, i think. I used to glue them on, but there is no need to. Cheers!

 

Ok..drank into my last fridge and now updated with a new store run..still keep forgetting those veggie bins..

That does it guys, a beer fridge is going on my birthday or Christmas list!!!! I have about 50 beers in my cellar that are wanting colder surroundings. Right now I only have a bomber and one six-pack assortment in the fridge.

 

#shelfbend..that's awesome...

 

I personally can't close my vegetable crisper on account of how much beer I have sitting above it. But alas, we must have our priorities.

 

Actually, my trick was to give into my wife's begging for a new kitchen fridge.."and Hon' we can just move the old fridge out to the garage.."

 

Maybe you have a local secondhand appliance store or simply leverage Craigslist for a cheapy? I buy almost all of my appliances through a local outfit that sells cheap and everything comes with a 24-month warranty. I think I paid $159 for my garage fridge.

Garage fridge - contains items to be consumed or traded:


Bar fridge - contains items that may be traded, may be consumed:


Climate-controlled closet - contains items that I am holding onto:

(except the bourbon, which I may or may not consume whilst admiring the stash).

 

Unfortunately, this week, it is pretty bare except for a few DFH 60 minutes, a Stone RIS, acouple homebrew scoth ales and maybe a bud lite or two. In desperate need of a restock and bottle shop trip, lol.

 

Remove the drawers.

 

How do you get them on without gluing? I am working on the top door of my fridge like you but I have a long way to go. Going for no repeats. I glue magnets on, do they just stick to the cap?

 

Yup. My first row was glued, then i just said f-it, stuck it on the back of the cap, and threw them on the fridge, and viola! No more fuss with the stupid glue gun. Cheers!

 

Hi All, been reading through the threads for sometime now but have only just signed up. Love all the US craft beers available and happy to say Australia is certainly doing a good job of putting new brews out there each week!

Thought i'd post a pic of my set-up established a few months back. There's been some changes made to the stocks since the pic was taken as it was an expensive exercise filling!! Only trouble is a more expensive electricity bill and the cooling loss over summer, even though it's not in any direct sunlight. Will be interesting to see how it goes over winter. But at the end of the day, it's well worth it!
