Default Tap Handles
If you constantly get the same keg of beer (Yuengling Lager for me) is there any way the distributor will loan you a tap handle. Has anyone ever looked into this?

I have never heard of loaner tap handles. Check out ebay, I have purchased all my tap handles from there. You can get used and new ones for around $15 to $20.

+1 on e-bay. I just spent 30 seconds there and searched Yuengling tap handle and got half a dozen hits.

"It is better that I drink this beer and let their dreams come true than
be selfish and worry about my liver."

Default Spare Tap Handles
I have purchased mine on ebay as well, but often have to purchase two or three in a lot to get the one I want. Anyone interested in swaping surplus handles? I have two PBR and one MGD I don't need.

You may be able to talk the distributor into giving you one (or even the brewery). Especially if you buy them all the time. Just talk to them and see what they say, push that fact that you are a good customer. It may take a few different people but beer guys are usually pretty good about stuff like that.
