Hi can anyone help before I went on holiday two weeks ago I bottled my very first batch of lager, half of the bottles I left in the room I use for my brewing the rest I put in the fridge. When I returned from hols the bottles in the fridge were flat and not nice, tried putting a couple of bottles from the room in the fridge for a couple of hours they were great carbonated and tasted great. Are the bottles I put in the fridge in the first place ruined completely.

Many thanks in advance:confused:
 
You needed to leave the bottles in the fridge out. The yeast went dormant and couldn't finish carbonating. Pull them all out and give them a few weeks.
