[reboot]

I have been building a kegerator from an chest freezer purchased from Craig’s list and CO2 tank and taps etc from MicroMatic. Just waiting on my Temperature controller, then I will be set to go. My main objective was to cut the cost of beer while getting a taster product as well as being green (throwing away all those cans is so wasteful).

While making phone calls to the local liquor stores to set up my first Keg purchase, I ran into an interesting situation. Every store I called in the West Indianapolis area said I had to return the keg within 10 days to get my $30 deposit back. I told them I had a Kegerator and would need to have the keg for about 30 days or so. Their response was “Well, you will lose your deposit then”

Now just how ridiculous is this? So I guess after my first Keg is gone and I take the Empty Keg Back to the store…and they want to keep the empty keg and charge me another $30 deposit for the new full one. They take you driver License number down when you go to pick the Keg up (So Ive Heard….so they can sue you if you don’t bring the keg back at all.

Any sugresstions?
