Here’s the rest of the beer story…
So, right after I made that last posting about the exploding beers in my freezer, I went to cook the frozen meal lunch I had brought to work. I realized that there was a puddle of sticky, dry beer on the cardboard on the top of the microwaveable boxed meal. I thought, “gross” and I put it in the microwave. While it was cooking, one of the grad students walked in and said, “I smell beer.” I was embarassed. It totally smelled like beer throughout half of the lab!
