From extensive and scientific research (screwing up), it takes about 45 minutes to get a beer cold in the freezer.
A frozen one in cold water takes about 30 minutes to thaw before it does not blow.
Now those are important stats.

Lap 181 — Clint Bowyer’s strong showing continues as he puts the No. 33 in sixth, up 29 positions since the start of the race.

Lap 180 — Greg Biffle drops to 10th.

Lap 179 — Jimmie Johnson’s lead continues to grow as the field does battle for position behind the No. 48.

Lap 185 — Kyle Busch is coming but can’t catch Jimmie Johnson as the line. Both drivers have debris on their grills and that should make things interesting.

Lap 184 — Jimmie Johnson’s lead has all but diminished as thh No. 18 finds the bumper of the No. 48.

Lap 189 — Jimmie Johnson tries a different line to gain back the lead. Kyle Busch stays out front through Turn 4.

Lap 188 — Jeff Gordon rounds out the top five.

Lap 187 — With just one win this season, Jimmie Johnson could use the bonus points, but Kyle Busch has taken the lead in Turn 2.

Lap 186 — The No. 18 works over Jimmie Johnson, but the No. 48 shuts Kyle Busch down at the line.

Lap 191 — Kurt Busch is sideways but saves the car in 11th.
