course I did.. :-) Just wish I could find them around here. The bars have them but the only thing the stores have is 6-packs and they're $12/6 pack. Crazy when considering a 20pk of bottles is $16 at Sams...

Beer has to be that cold for varying reasons and here are just a few;
  • before cutting grass
  • during grass cutting
  • after cutting grass
  • sitting around thinking about how long before grass needs cutting again
  • after breakfast
  • before and after lunch
  • before and after dinner
  • and my favorite... just cause it's there...

They make a "chill chamber" for them with a big blue LED temp readout. Man let me tell you, that's the coldest (and best) beer (still in liquid form) that I have ever consumed.

Here's some info on it:

I always knew there was a good use for that silly gauge.
Looks Good,

"Nutz" ... Did you check with the manufacturer of your most prized Garage Cooler to understand the parameters of coverage and the devastating effect it could have on the unit if the HD gauge is not synchronized by means of a Digital Tech done by a factory Trained Full Fledged Harley Davidson Air Cooling Trained Technician ... I mention this only because the Liquid Cooled technicians have absolutely what "Ambient Air Temperature" could do to a perfectly chilled bottle of your most favorite liquid refreshment!
