Keg Information
Also, with enough notice, any beer you see in a bottle can be special ordered in a keg right from the brewery. Length of time can vary depending on brewery.

Yes we do. However we do charge a deposit that you would get back when it is retured in good condition. The deposit is $15. We also charge a $75 deposit for the pump and $60 for the keg itself. You may pay cash or use a credit card for the deposit. Sorry no checks allowed.
