It is no secret that as the prices of used kegs are rising we are looking for ways to get the pricing down. The O.B.Keg 2.5G keg will be available soon. Details can be found on our website or facebook page. New kegs for cheaper then used! Pre order pricing will end May 17th.

Can you stack them and have connectors on the lower keg?

This generation connects will not fit when stacked. The ones arriving in later in the summer have longer handles so they will.

Keep us posted on when they are available, i'll probably grab a couple.
"Twenty years ago — a time, by the way, that hops such as Simcoe and Citra were already being developed, but weren’t about to find immediate popularity — there wasn’t a brewer on earth who would have gone to the annual Hop Growers of American convention and said, “I’m going to have a beer that we make 4,000 barrels of, one time a year. It flies off the shelf at damn near $20 a six-pack, and you know what it smells like? It smells like your cat ate your weed and then pissed in the Christmas tree.” - Bell’s Brewery Director of Operations John Mallet on the scent of their popular Hopslam.

Another important question. Are they Pepsi diameter?

Sorry I had to stall on your question. I was working as a Quality Auditor in a lab for an automotive company when I received the sample. So naturally we blew it up to see what psi it could handle. Then we did a cross section weld analysis on the surviving welds.

I just confirmed they are the same diameter as the original sample 9". That is slightly larger then a Pepsi tank.

These are now in stock.

Any intentions on getting into the jockey box market?

We have plans to get into everything on the kegging side. It is a long slow road with many curves and cars.

Fyi, the coke keg diameter is a deal killer for me. My mini fridge needs pepsi size. But built at that height, they may not fit stacked anyway.

At this time 10gallons seems unlikely. I have been repeatedly requesting tooling be made for them (I do not want to pay it myself) and I am sure others have. All I can do is hope the manufacturer decides in the future to do it.

It does however look very likely will have some 6.6gallon kegs in the same model in the future. Be nice not doing all the work to bottle a half dozen or dozen on kegging day.
