Second batch I did was a nut brown ale. Bottle two cases and put them in the warm dark pantry. A few days later I was awoken at two AM by a long THUD! Grabbed my bat and started sneaking through the house looking for whoever was there. Walked by the pantry and instantly my foot was wet. Turned on the light and there was an ever-widening circle of brown liquid several feet across. Open the pantry and there is beer on the wall, the food, the door, everywhere. looked in one case and half dozen bottles are just piles of glass. Got towels, and emptied the cabinet. Started soaking up beer and I hear "honey is everything alright". "Go back to sleep, everything this fine". Two hours later, after mopping, cleaning the wall, wiping off the food, and restocking the pantry, I go to bed. "Ooh, you smell like beer". From then on, bottles condition in the garage. Never happened again.
