would that be a bad idea? i can put them in so many more places in my fridge if i could lay them horizontal
my question is
why do some commercial unfiltered wheat beers recommend swirling the bottle to mix up the sediment while pouring, and homebrewers avoid bottling sediment like the plague?
my beer closet than about a week before drinky time I throw em in the fridge.
if you don't mind a little sediment than go for it, it wont kill you I age some bombers on their side in my beer closet than about a week before drinky time I throw em in the fridge.

Wouldn't putting them in the fridge negate the whole conditioning process? From what I understand about conditioning, you'll need to store these bottles in a place with a temperature that allows the yeast to do their work finishing up the beer.
If you store them in the fridge, the yeast will just go dormant.
Correct me if I'm wrong here.

Rockin closet man! :rockin:
I...I...think this is awesome. How many cases of beer is that? 20?
hokay, so...i have a wine fridge that currently holds precisely zero wine bottles. The racks would hold my 22oz bottles with a high degree of awesomenicity. Once conditioned for 3 weeks, would it then be ok to put them in the fridge on their sides? It will hold more bottles on the racks than if i took them out to stand the bottles up.
I assume when you put them in the fridge for a week, you put them in upright, and yeast settles at the bottom?
Perhaps the OP could adopt such a policy: put them in the fridge, but leave a spot for a few bottles standing upright, and just move a new one to the upright position every time you take a bottle out...
You are correct, but I believe the OP is talking about putting them in the fridge AFTER they have finished conditioning/carbing
