Transporting beer
Heading to our place in the UP of Michigan after Christmas and it is going to be cold, very cold. I always bring my drinks up because I hate the bottle deposit. I will have a 6 hour drive in single digit temps. The bed will be full of gear and is covered with a MX4, the truck and beer will be about 55 when we leave. Do I have to worry about the beer freezing on the drive up? I would rather not have to take up more space putting the beer in a cooler.

Check the temps - beer doesn't freeze at 32 due to the alcohol content. And it won't freeze in 6 hours. You'll be fine.

I was wondering if that may be the situation. Perhaps you can put the beer in some of your gear that would provide insulation, blankets, tent, or such? We've put bottled liquids in our suitcases before, so it was kept from freezing by the clothes around it. Put 6 beers in each suitcase. That way you don't lose much space per suitcase and they will be protected.

It's 6 hours... Beer is 55 at the start. It won't freeze.
