  • Score!!!

    Well, there was a severe lack of beer in my kegerator so I took a trip on down to my favored keg dispensary, aka liquor store. I can fit a sixth barrel & a half barrel inside my kegerator.
    In looking at what was available, I picked up one of my favorites in a sixth, Four Peaks Brewing Hop Knot IPA.


    And then, on sale were three half barrels of Anderson Valley Brewing's Winter Solstice Ale...



    Now this brew normally retails for $202 a half barrel!!!
    They had it on sale for $85... The owner sold it to me for $75!!!
    I got it home & threw it in the KILLER KEGERATOR & couldn't wait for it to chill & settle down so I poured myself a foam filled (expected) pint. Very tasty. It has a hint of vanilla & chocolate with a wee bit of spice - no real hop bite to speak of. It is listed at 6.9% ABV so it is not what I would call a session brew. I only wish I had cooler space to pick up another one of these. Cheers!!!

                My best asset however is the inspiration from the members on this forum.

                  Heh, heh... good point Ken!!!
                  I do actually have a lightly used 1/3 hp condensing unit sitting around bhut I would have to come up with not only the evaporator bhut the space as well. Don't think I haven't entertained the idea before.

                    All you need is an old fridge & a few parts - easy build. You don't have to get as elaborate as I did to get some ice cold draft brew at home. If you are interested I can steer you in the right direction. Let me know.

                      I use an old fridge for a kegerator. Two hombrews on tap now: Weizen and Phat Tyre (clone).
