What's on tap at your house?

[KeggerGator]

Slim keg of Blue Moon. Still trying to get the temp and pressure right... Mostly foam with minimal carbonation at this point....

[Mantis]

Sierra Nevada Pale Ale. My first beer in my new kegerator.

[brindle]

just finished Weihenstephaner Hefe, now Fullers ESB...

[ninarhoz]

moosehead, again. hee hee. i think i might try to smaller ones next. wish they delivered kegs here in chicago! for cheap!

[davstrenio]

Budweiser American Ale. I thought it tasted much better from the bottle. This was my first keg for my new kegerator, and well, I'm disappointed in my decision. Now I have to drink a whole 6th of this crap before I get a better keg. I think I'll go with Sierra Nevada pale ale next. Live and Learn...

[vasco]

I'll see if I can find a Lagunitas sixtel, along with a Bud Light once the kegerator is purchased and installed...can you say cart before the horse?

[JCKoLnturn]

I got a 1/6 of Sam Adams Octoberfest in my Vissani. I made a few corrections to the unit and now I have perfect pours every time and the Sam Adams tastes great!

[rjthomas21]

Just got an old Bev-Air kegerator on loaner from my roommate's relative and it came with a free Shocktop. While not my favorite it still is awesome to finally have a kegerator!

The only slight issue is every time the compressor kicks on the lights in the kitchen and hallway flicker for a second. Oh well!

Returned an empty Killian's Irish Red today and replaced with Foster's lager.

[californiakulak]

[beer2foamy]

First keg in my newly purchased used haier kegerator is 1/2 barrel of Dos Equis Amber. Its kind of sad because a lot has been wasted testing out the right temp and pressure but it doesnt bother me to much, cause I have draught beer!!!!!

[OlDirtyJohn]

Karl Strauss Oktoberfest. seriously guys, if you are ever in or around SoCal, you need to try some Karl Strauss. Guy makes amazing beer.

[jvcjbl]

My 2nd 13.2 Gallon Firestone DBL Barrel Ale just came in today... will pick it up Friday when I get paid. Each pour is pure bliss!!! Enjoying Four Peaks Hop Knot 15 Gallon at my 2nd home.... Good Stuff for a local brew

Blue Point Toasted

[jvcjbl]

Yesterday just installed my 2nd 13.2 Gallon keg of Firesstone Double Barrel Ale... Letting it chill for 48 hours before tapping. In the mean time I'm enjoying Wild Blue... this is some pretty good beer for being an anheuser-busch owned product..... maybe it's the 8% a.b.v.

[Mantis]

Flying Dog Doggie Style Classic Pale Ale.

I've noticed some taste different between bottle and tap. IMO usually the tap is better than the bottle (most recently had this with Dogfishhead Punkin ale, didn't care for the bottle, enjoyed the tap).

Sierra Nevada Pale Ale is bottle fermented and is not as good on tap. If you have a local bar that has lots of different things on tap and rotates them, you might want to go taste testing first. Our local bar is one of these and this helps us decide when we're looking for something new.

Finally ran out of Anchor Summer Beer (thanks Bound for supplying us from April!). Now we have a quarter of Lord Chesterfield. Trying to decide if we want to get a sixtal to put with it (we have a dual tower) or just wait until the Elf comes in.

[miller lite man]

miller lite for me

It's fantastic in the bottle... great on tap... just not as "aggressive" tasting... still one of my all time fav beers.

I notice the same thing with Leinies Octoberfest. The tap version tastes much better than the bottled version.

This past weekend, I put in a sixtel of Sweetwater Motor Boat (one of the best ESBs I've had) and a slim quarter of Bell's Porter. I'm wondering a bit if the Bell's is an aberrant keg or something, as it seems to be very carbonated, much more than a porter should be. I've been having foaming issues with it too, which could be because of this weird carbonation or maybe because the fatter keg doesn't allow the air to circulate around it as much.

I just picked up a 5 gallon keg of Sierra Nevada Anniversary Ale. I have to hurry and finish it because their Celebration Ale is out.

I finished the Anniversary Ale and just tapped the Celebration Ale this Wednesday. It's well worth rushing for.. but the Anniversary is so worthy of savoring. These are the kinds of problems I don't mind having (unlike the Stella that's in my 2nd tap position; I'm sure it's good, but I don't have an "S" sankey ).

Damn you guys... I don't think I can get either on keg right now. I think I'm getting Stone IPA next time around

[jwight86]

tapped 1/4 of miller lite and 1/6 of killians irish red for the halloween party tonight!

[41ants]

Just picked up a 1/6 of DFH 90min

[varmint243]

Tapped 1/2 Kokanee last night

[cm11599ps]

I've got a corny of a basic stout homebrew.

[dh4645]

havent had anything in the kegerator for 2 months. I was in Philly for work and only home on the weekends so it would have went bad.

so my dilemma is...at my local beer distributor that's 2 min away from my house a 1/2 of sam adams octoberfest will be like $160 and the 1/6 is like $80 (with a $30 deposit on either since i traded in my last empty for a case of octoberfest)

the 1/2 is 3x as much beer for only twice the price, but i don't know if i want to pay that much or need that much octoberfest and the 1/6 for $80 is about the same price for the equivalent amount of beer in cases.

maybe i should just go with my usual 1/2 of yuengling lager for $85 + $30 deposit and just buy a case of octoberfest.

or should i try something else?


what do you think?

[jimpod]

Working my way through the 1st keg in my new Kegerator! Bought on clearance from the local HD for less then $300. Going through the 1st timer learning curve (can you say foam), but am still enjoying the beer. Gonna build a tower cooler this weekend which I think should fix the issues.

Next up some Shipyard Pumpkin if I can still find it around me...

I am thoroughly enjoying my keg of Anniversary Ale. It is the perfect beer for IPA loving, kegerator owners.

[cubby_swans]

I have on tap a corney of my homebrew IPA, that's based off a Bell's Two Hearted clone. It's pretty good.

[jsbrugg]

To make my wife happy, my first keg is a 1/2 bbl of Widmer Okto. I'm now wishing I started a little smaller, but I'm cheap so I had to get the best deal.
