Hi guys,
I bottled my first ever brew 2 weeks ago and figured I would go grab one and try it, though a week early. I took out a bottle from my dark closet to put in the fridge to get a chill on it before tasting. Well the outside of the bottle was a little wet. My first thought was perhaps it leaked but I felt around the cap and it was try and seemed full still. And then it hit me. Oh ^&#%$!!. Looked in the closet with a flashlight and yep, there it was. One of the bottles blew up in the case throwing up a spray of beer and glass shrapnel on some of the other bottles. So far it's just one. So far.
So my question is, how common is this? Can I expect the possibility of more in the coming weeks?
