Half Barrel Keg Coat

We¡¯ve all had the unsavory experience of the ¡°bottom of the keg" ¨C the warm, flat, unrecognizable residue at the bottom of what was otherwise a fine keg of beer. Unlike bottled beer, keg beer is unpasteurized. Pasteurization is the process of heating a beverage to kill bacteria, so since kegs are unpasteurized and contain far less preservatives than bottles or cans, it's critical that they remain below 55 degrees Fahrenheit! At this temperature, dormant bacteria in the beer become active and quickly ruin the flavor of your beer.

In the past, keeping the beer in the critical sub-55 degree range required bags upon bags of ice and a huge tub to set the keg in, which are a pain to obtain, make a mess and melt in a half hour on a hot summer day.

Your day of salvation from warm, nasty keg beer is here! Welcome, my friends, to the future of sucking down beer outside!

Using a Keg Coat will keep your beer cold up to 3 TIME LONGER with the same amount of ice. In fact, it will keep a full keg chilled to 42 degrees below 45 degrees after 7 hours standing out at room temperature with NO ICE! Not only will it simply keep it cold longer, with less effort, but it is also much cleaner and more convenient than bag upon bag of ice!

Features:

Durable canvas outer lining ¨C super strong and built to last!

Extra tough stitching, with seams placed away from the edges to enhance strength.

Water tight inner liner means no leaks! If your party is going to go over 7 hours, you can add ice to the keg coat leak free too!

Comes with handles ¨C more than strong enough to lift a 160 lb keg.

Why keg beer? Glad you asked:

A full beer keg contains the equivalent of 165 12-ounce beers. That's almost seven cases! Do the math ¨C keg wins in price every time!

Kegs taste better! Bottles and cans contain preservatives to give them a longer shelf life. Kegs do not. This means that keg beer is usually fresher, compared to bottles and cans which might have been brewed several months ago and still not be past their expiration date!

And of course there is the social aspect of a keg. A keg is a beer buffet, a family style helping of hoppy goodness. How many people have you socialized with at parties if for no other reason than you were in line for the keg? Have you ever heard someone advertise a "30 pack party?" Personally, I would hit rather a kegger every time, hands down! Finally, if nothing else, is just a damn good reason to buy a keg and have your friends over. Bug zapper and hot dogs sold separately.
