    Reviewed in the United States on September 11, 2013
    Verified Purchase
    Love this mini-keg! It arrived in good condition and I promptly filled it up with a black IPA that I had just finished fermenting. I let it sit for about three months before tapping and the beer tasted AMAZING. It tasted far better than the same beer that had bottle conditioned. If you are considering switching to a mini-keg setup, I highly recommend it. I use these mini-kegs in conjunction with the Party Star Deluxe tapping system. I like these because they easily fit in my refrigerator and don't take up much space.

    TWO THINGS:

    1) The description said a two piece bung is included. I didn't receive one and it looks like other reviewers didn't get theirs either. Amazon should change the description. Still a great product. Just a heads up!

    2) While it is really nice getting a blank mini-keg like this, many of your local liquor stores (bevmo, total wine, etc) will sell mini kegs just like this already filled up with a good german beer for about the same price.

    All in all, I love this and plan on collecting as many as I can! Sure beats bottling.

    Reviewed in the United States on August 2, 2014

    The Mini-Keg is a great idea. I also purchased a refrigerator that the keg sits in and provides an excellent way to keep the keg cool while not taking up refrigerator space. Great for parties / barbecues. I was hoping the craft brewers in the area would allow me to fill the mini-keg similar similar to a growler, but they will not and transferring beer without foaming out will take some type of hose / transfer system. I have them fill growlers and then I fill the mini-keg using a funnel. Not the optimum manner to effect the transfer. The reason for the 3 stars is that the two mini-kegs in different shipments I received were dented. I read about this issue in other reviews so I was ready to see it, but was hoping it would not be the case. It does not affect the usability of the keg, but I feel for the amount paid for the product, one should expect an undented product. It doesn't appear the dents occur in transit, rather that they are being shipped in this manner. If you are looking for this type of beer storage, go ahead and purchase this keg. You will not be dissatisfied.

    Reviewed in the United States on June 25, 2023
    Verified Purchase
    I have had a whole host of trouble using these kegs. I ordered 3 for a batch of homebrew with the proper bungs to lock it in.

    Because my beer produced a large amount of pressure from the carbonation. My legs began exploding and eventually a whole even settled. I tried early extraction to release pressure, but there is only so much I can do with a rowdy batch. My bottles with this batch have been fine, but the kegs have been doing poorly.

    The other issue is the nozzle. There is pressure leaking that occurs around that area, so some liquid extracts and it is hard to move about.

    My recommendation is to try and find some bung that is reusable and allows for pressure release if it gets too high. But for me, I would rather pay more and get something a little more reliable than these. My product is now damaged and I am rather disappointed.

    these kegs are cheap as dirt and excellent quality... made in Germany not china... I bought these kegs..(i bought two because they were so cheap) so that i could keg my home brew. iam very glade i pulled the trigger on this. it worked out perfectly. if you plan on conditioning your home brew in these make sure you buy some keg lube and some better rubber keg bungs. I got two of them for 6 bucks... All in all a very cheap way to keg your beer.. it makes bottle day allot easier with a couple of these guys instead of what 54 12oz beer bottles.. pain in the ass to bottle that many beers.. just keg them dude.
