Beer Refrigeration

A beer refrigerator is a beverage refrigerator used specifically to store beer.  Beer refrigerators – also known as commercial refrigerators – are primarily found in bars, restaurants, convenience stores, and grocery stores.  

Beer Temperature

Beer is an alcoholic drink that relies on temperature optimization, so it is important to choose a refrigerator that keeps beer at the perfect temperature consistently.  There are 3 storage temperatures used to lay beer down for maturation and/or storage. Not only will you want store your beers at these specific temperatures, but also you'll want to serve them at the same. Your strong beers (like barleywines, tripels, dark ales) should be kept at room temperature (55-60F), most of your standard ales (like bitters, IPAs, dobbelbocks, lambics, stouts, etc) will be at cellar temperature (50-55F) and your lighter beers (like lagers, pilsners, wheat beers, milds, etc) will be at a refrigerated temperature (45-50F). Usually the higher alcohol, the higher temperature and lower alcohol, the lower temperature.
