Howdy Ags, have a group coming down to CS for a weekend and we are looking for a keg & tap. Does HEB still rent them or Specs? Where is the best place to rent from these days?

Not sure but please provide address and start time of said keg tapping.

It's really not economically efficient to get a keg anymore, especially if you have to rent a tap and shell. But, most grocery stores and Spec's can help you out.

RIP keg of Ice House for $35

Yeah. We just buy a bunch of cases amd load down a cooler/our spare refrigerator, which offers a variety to everyone as well.

I have a co2 cylinder, sanke valve, and a picnic tap. I don't have a nice tap handle. But the picnic tap works just fine for hanging out and having a beer. Just drop the keg into a trash can of ice.

When are you needing this?

I was 19...er, I mean , 21 at the time so the Ice House hangover wasn't much of a factor.

If you're dead set on a keg, Spec's is your best bet. They'll rent out the trash can and tap, but it'll be one of those crappy plastic pump taps. Just be sure to have some stuff on hand to lube the little o-ring it if it goes south. I've Macgyver'd more than I care to remember with everything from KY to butter.

Like others have said, though, your best bet is to get a big variety of cans and bottles and ice them down so everyone can find something they like. Kegs used to be cheaper ounce for ounce, but those days are gone.
