    Depends on the amount of alcohol...

    For instance a beer can will freeze.. whereas Vodka will just go really really thick - quite nice out of the freezer actually...

    So it depends on the alcohol content...

    Well, it cant be frozen inside your refrigerator - the temps dont get low enough. BUt you could freeze alcohol in liquid nitrogen. Needs an excessive low temp to freeze.
