Default How many people

So if a keg has 165 beers in it, how many people will that serve? This includes playing drinking games like beer pong? Will it be okay for a group of approx 35 people? Not all of them drink beer though.

Weber,

If everyone drinks one beer it will serve 165 people according to your posting. 165 divided by 35 beer drinker equals 4.72 beerd per person. If only 30 drink beer then it will average 5.5 beers per person.

It depends on how many beer drinkers you have, how many beers the average person will drink and how long your party will last.

Lou

Well if you invite me and Topgun and Scott you will need a second keg, otherwise one would most likely be fine....

Have u noticed I haven't had any foaming issues lately? been doing the craft brews the past couple weeks lately lol. wanted to get a keg of Smithwicks Irish ale last week until I found it takes a "U" coupler, heck I havent used my G&S couplers yet.

My next purchase is going to be a "U" coupler just for the Smithwick's. It has become one of my favorites but I can only get it at one local bar.

Smithwicks is on tap at some of the restaurants here, I get the bottles for home. good tasting stuff, but I think there is only 6 breweries for the U coupler. @ $60 a pop for one, I dont think so.

Well you can't go wrong with Guinness, Harp and Smithwick's. It's not as if it was for a small brewery that you may never drink again. If you know any of the managers or owners of the restaurants, they may be able to grab you one from their distributor.

the only trouble with Guinness is the gas mixes. had it one time on draught and didnt really care for it. might have to try it by the bottle soon.
