You'd have to have an awful lot of ethanol to keep it from freezing. Strong beer (5-7%) freezes pretty easily. People used to "distill" their hard cider by putting a barrel out to freeze. Any fermented solution you can you can freeze fairly quickly -- the % of ethanol will never be above 16% at max, and you need at least 50% alky to "anti-freeze" a solution. Depends on how cold it gets, I guess, but zero should pretty well do it for any "wine" or "beer".
