    AB, Miller have slim 30s in select markets and Coors is probably right behind them. Othe craft brews and imports are utilizing this keg size as well. Has the advantage of the sixtel but with more volume (tall quarter bbl).

      I was told by a distributer in south west PA that Yuengling would not sell the slim 1/4 kegs to the public anymore due to people not returning the kegs back to Yuengling. He said that only businesses were getting the small kegs. Thats a real bummer because the Yuengling 1/4 keg is one of the main reasons I purchased my kegerator.

        I just bought a slim 1/3 of Ying Lager last week and I know that the distributor just got it in a day or two before. Deposit was $30.

                ...as a follow-up to the Clipper City sixtels availability.....they're now much more difficult to get, in the Baltimore area.

                I was going through them too quickly anyhow, so I've raised the white flag and started buying 1/2 kegs!

                  That was a very informative post! Thank you for the effort. I believe there are many of us out there with kegerators that would enjoy having more than one product on-tap. Sixtels allow that to become reality.

                      In the Baltimore area, I picked up a keg of Sierra Nevada Pale ale last night, and a rep from Troegs brewery was giving out samples. (Great stuff, especially the Hopback Amber & Dead Reckoning Porter). I get my kegs from Christos in Ferndale, MD.

                      Anyway, he told me that The following offerings, are available in sixtels.

                      Hopback Amber Ale
                      Troeganator Double Bock
                      DreamWeaver Wheat
                      Rugged Trail (nut brown ale)
                      Troegs Pale Ale
                      Nugget Nectar, (seasonal available in Spring)
                      Sunshine Pils (another seasonal)

                      Hope this helps!

                        Hey all,

                        I was wondering if anyone knew of where to get slim/pony kegs in the south jersey/philadelphia area.

                          Slim Pony Kegs is somewhat a missnomer. Pony kegs are 1/4 bbls of the short stubby type. There are slim 1/4s that are the same height as 1/2 bbls but with a much slimmer waistline or footprint(11" vs 16") in your kegerator. They are also easier to ice down in a trash pail! Whatever, I know that Yuengling Lager is available in slim 1/4s throughout most of your state. I believe that Miller Light is distributed in the slim 1/4 format throughout the northeast. That gives you a choice of two good products to help spread the party cheer! I hope this helps and maybe someone could add to the list. Don't rule out sixtels(1/6th bbl) there is much more available in that format. Thanks for posting!

Available in sixtels or bottles. Smooth tasting, nice flavor, just HAD to try a pint after servicing customer. (Must maintain quality control standards!). A pretty decent effort from A-B. cya..............brianatkcdraft.

                              Here in Fort Collins, Co (Most famous for Fat Tire) you can get slim 1/4 for beer from O'Dells brewery. Right now I have a slim 1/4 of Easy Street (a American hefa) in my Kegerator.
