As a veteran HBT member, I know the first rule of a beery disaster is take pictures. I present to you the results of a bad thermostat.

Had a big party last night and plugged in the Beverage Air to keep the beer cold. It was running 37-40F all night, no problem. This morning I heard it running and checked the thermometer - 20F. Dammit.

Damn, that really sucks. Ommegang especially. Though some of it might be salvageable?
 
Yeah, a few of the bottles didn't break, even though the beer inside was frozen solid. I'm hoping they'll still be drinkable.
