So as most people in Western WA know, it has been friggin cold the last couple of days. I put my digital thermometer outside last night and it quit working at 11 F.
Flash forward to tonight and I come home from work, and grab a couple of Fosters out of my beer fridge ( located in the garage). I opened one of them to no pop, fizzle, etc. Poured into a glass and it was almost flat, no carbination. Poured the 2nd into the glass, same thing. I dumped them out and headed back to the garage to try again. Same thing. Tasted them, flat as a pancake I then noticed that my beer fridge felt colder than the ambient air in the garage. I then remembered that the fridge was warmer then the ambient a couple nights ago.
2 Twelve packs of Fosters and a couple other random 12 packs DOA.
Wonder if my home owners will cover them? |

A Fosters oil can sounds good right about now!  _________________ '86 Trans Am - 5.0L TPI - LT1 cam - 700R4 - WS6
