              Anyone have or use the BeerTender from Heineken?
I saw the commerical and thought it looked cool but not $300 bucks cool.

Granted I don’t drink beer, but would be cool for a home bar.

              I was wondering how much it was. I dont drink Heineken. If sam adams came out with one then maybe.

              well it looks like it will work with any 5L or 6L kegs
             
            
              
                
            
           
          
            
            
              hmm not many of those lil kegs around otherwise decent idea. I’d get one if they were like $120ish.
             
            
              
            
           
          
            
            
              Funny, I just realized those existed the other day and my friends and I had to go out and buy a Heineken Keg because we were talking about them.
About the BeerTender, if it holds up, it’s definitely worth the money.

              make your own kegorator

F-no, what a waste! Get a kegger and a half barrel. We picked ours up for under $200 and half kegs go for about 60-70 bucks.
Then after that you can get in to the big leagues…

              You can make a kegerator for $150 + fridge. To buy a decent one new itll run $750-$1000. Both are far better options than that.

I have 15.5L of the same in my basement, brewing away.  I love the smell of a fermenter at full throttle, bubbling away. I’m hooked on home brewing for sure.
