Important Safety Question

[JKJavelin]

Is it safe to transport full 12-packs of bottled beer in the refrigerator without worrying about them breaking. I was thinking of possibly putting them into cardboard 6-pack carriers, but I thought I'd ask if someone has a better idea. And NO--- I'm not switching to cans! Thanks. Now I'm getting thirsty just thinking about it...

We had bottle beer on our frig shelves once. When we opened the frig door at a gas station, 2 bottles rolled out and broke when they hit each other on the floor. We barefoot in our RV... cans from now on.

Just be careful the first time you open the door after you stop in case anything tries to escape.

I had my fridge's contents dumped, including mayo and mustard lids blown off from the fall, after crossing the US/MX border on my way back from Rocky Point and the idiot US BP agents didn't close my fridge after inspecting it. Learned my lesson not to trust =anyone= "inspecting" my stuff without checking personally afterwards. Had to toss all the fridge's contents, including about $100 of shrimp I'd bought, because it warmed beyond safety. :M

Never had any glass container break inside our 5vr fridge.

Have had pickle jar, jalapeño jar and single bottle of Tecate break from falling out of fridge due to NOT properly closing door :S

As long as you keep all the tires touching ground you should be OK amego.

I've never had any break yet.

Well we did once, we have a rear kitchen, and hit a road buckle on 101 south of Seaside,OR. The area will flood from time to time, well after the last flood before we crossed it was basically a speed bump. Speed limit 45, and same rough road sign that has been there for years.
TV wasn't too bad, have Bil's, but the 5er almost left the ground! the 5er didn't have shocks at that time and it took it hard! Wiped out all the shelves on the refer door except the bottom one.

The shocks went on the 5er shortly after!!!

I think they are safe as a 12 pk. My 12pk of preference just stacks the bottles on top of one another. They don't have enough wiggle room to break. It is when they get loose that the glass might "clink" enough to break.

With loose bottles I use the door shelf, alternating between beverage, ketchup, beverage, mustard, beverage, water, etc.......keeping a bit of plastic between the bottles.

We have lots of glass items in the refrigerator (not beer, but all kinds of glass bottled soft drinks), not to mention things like glass pickle jars and wine bottles. Never has one broken. We put as much in the door as possible. Never a problem.

Once left an open Diet Coke in a can opened in the refrigerator. Hit the road, reached the next destination, opened the refrigerator and saw the can ... OH YUCK we thought! BUT not a drop or splash anywhere! Amazing! Maybe we dodged a bullet? That was a long time ago. Ever since, we double check the refrigerator for open containers or containers that might pop their top when on the road.

Pack with great joy! Live free! and Enjoy the brew!

Why not? How do your think they made it to the store from the brewery?

I have never an issue. Hell I fill the door holders with bare glass bottles. Never a broken bottle to date.
