I've just gone to collect a couple of bottles from my Young's American IPA stash that have been bottle conditioning for well over three weeks and discovered that there was beer in the bottom of the crate (I store them in a plastic crate) Having looked for obvious exploded bottles I couldn't find any however I did find two that were half full. They're Coopers PET bottles, both were fully intact with caps fully screwed on, neither leaked despite squeezing them and the beer inside was fully carbonated and tastes fine. I filled the bottles with water and neither leaked.
I can't for the life of me think how the beer escaped so am wondering if anyone else has experienced similar or can un-blow my mind by explaining how this happens!
