Do all beers need refrigeration???

[darkmatter14B]

I know that most beers do need to be refrigerated, but I'm wondering about high alcohol beers. I've been buying alot of special releases lately, most of which are in 22oz bottles and higher than 10% alcohol. Running out of refrigerator space!!!

Not all, maybe nearly none of them need refrigerated. Some taste a lot better cold, some are good at room temp.
Keep them where light isn't an issue if they are in bottles.
Just avoid them being hot.

Do you mean for long term storage?



Ideally you want a cool dry place, i.e. something like a wine cellar. Barring that, keep it in a place that doesn't have huge temperature swings and doesn't get hot.

Sorry, I forgot to specify that, yes, I'm talking about long term storage of maybe a couple of years.

Yea, cool, dry, and out of the light. 60F is about perfect.
