I got back from a great family vacation today and checked on my batch of brew that I bottled a week and half ago. To my surprise, I found two bottles that had exploded. After I finished cleaning up, I thought to myself "self it is warm". Then I remembered, my wife turned up the thermostat to 76 while we were gone for the last 5 days.
We are cooling down the house to our typical 72. Is the rest of my bottles of brew ok? Should the rest of the aging process take place in the fridge?
As always, thanks in advance.

Ps. It was an IPA: 9 days fermentation plus I dry hopped in the same fermentor for 6 more days, OG 1.064, and FG 1.013.
