Alright i want to point out first that im not a big alcohol fan, but its what i have to do to get my mind off opiates. Here's the wierd situation and question i have,
3 months ago my buddy put 24 unopened beer bottles in a bucket in his trunk that we had left over from a party. The next day when we were all ready to drink the night away we opened the trunk to a potent stale beer stench. We looked in the bucket to see all of the beer bottles had nothing in them. None of the bottles were damaged or cracked at all and they still had there caps on them. I didn't think much of this situation because i always seem to run into bad luck flukes like this. Well the same situation happened to me again with a different friend two days ago, and thats why i posted this topic to see what you experts had to say. My only say at this is just that the pressure of the bottles change in the the warm trunks with the vibrations from music etc. This causing gaps in the cap and letting the "delicious" beer run out. But i have no clue and i just wanted to see what answers i got from you guys.
 
next time keep your ale on either ice or in the fridge. I'm sorry but this is common sense.
 
I think letting them stay warm doesn't really explain anything... when I was younger, I use to leave beer in my trunk all the time. But I'm not sure if anybody can answer this question. Seems like a job for Mulder and Scully.
 
Do you drive the car from Repo Man? ;)
You did say bottles? Only one way out of the bottle for beer to escape -- the cap. Heat + gas = expanding gas. Get it warm enough and you have enough pressure to break the seal. May not cause the cap to fly off, but it will cause beer to leak out under the right conditions.
Cans have a few more points to leak and explode.
Maybe you shouldn't store your beer in the trunk when it's hot out? (Or freezing cold for that matter.)
 
Yep, I've run into the same problem now and again. I'll store some beer in my trunk, forget about it for a week or so, then come back and the bottles or cans feel lighter than normal. This is my cue to throw them out. It really sucks in the winter when you accidentally leave your beer in the trunk and you wind up with beer-cicles.
 
I think this is the wrong forum for this question. Sounds like an X file to maybe. Maybe you should put it in that forum, oh wait there isn't one. Maybe you can start one...
 
The X files is over. Maybe i will send it to CSI and see what those wierdos do with it.
