The beer used was Natty Light in 12 oz. cans to reduce chilling time and because I'm a cheap bastard. Natty was taken from refrigerator at 42.3 F and put in a nearly full 14.9 F freezer for 1 hour 20 minutes and poured into a thick walled glass mug from the same freezer. Freezer door was briefly opened a few times during experiment.
A successful ultimate beer slushie:
1. Must pour quickly and completely.
2. Must consist of only slush from bottom to top immediately after pouring.
If your temps are higher than I listed give more time. Only use well chilled thick walled glass mug. Preferably use mug at least 25% more volume than beer used. Preferably a narrow opening mug too since the carbonation will be trapped within slushie causing it to erupt out of mug if not caught in time. Be prepared to take the top off two or three times in quick succession. Since carbonation is released quickly upon being warmed in the mouth.....swallowing then burping fast enough in order to take the next top off to repeat the procedure again is a skill of which to be proud.
