Beer Fridge Buyer's Guide

A Quick Note About Beer Fridge Decoration

As any discerning beer fan knows, one of the best parts of owning a beer fridge is decking it out with plenty of brewery stickers, painting it or transforming it into something that resembles one of your favorite fandoms, such as this Star Wars fan that crafted a beer fridge based on his favorite franchise:

This conversation-starting beer fridge will surely make guests thirsty as they read the myriad beer styles that may be contained within the fridge itself.

Best Beer Fridge for a Garage or Basement

Smeg Refrigerators

The aforementioned garage refrigerator makes one think mid-century modern, or at least it probably should. To hit that mark, look toward a Smeg fridge. The retro design could slip into a garage and flash to Pleasantville every time a guest reaches for a beer. With multiple sizes, a full-size Smeg can look great in a well-designed kitchen or set aside in a garage or basement. The smaller Smegs also work great anywhere a small mini-fridge would slide in. Available in 11.7 cubic feet versions or 9.92 cubic feet capacity.

NewAir AB-1200

With space for more than 120 cans, the NewAir might be the quintessential extra beverage fridge when one thinks about space for extra beer. With adjustable racks, the fridge can hold multiple cases or a few six-packs and some big bombers waiting for their special day. The glass door allows for a drinker to find exactly they want before letting out that precious cold air.
