I got the Krups Beertender B85 and never used it as never knew where to get mini kegs from.

They've got a novelty factor and they stay cold for ages but a bottle will do fine thanks.nonetheless good price voted hot.

i bought one of these the other week. using the tap on it i got NOTHING but foam from it. a pint of foam is not very tasty

how do you cool these to the correct temperature?

:thinking:

It is true that you can get 3 cases of cans of lager for £20 when the 3 for £20 offers are on. However, these cases are nearly always 15 or 18 cans are are always for lower strength lager, like Carling, Fosters or Carlsberg. It is more common to be able to get 20 440ml cans of non imported premium lager for around the £10 mark when they are on special offer, so 8.8 litres, as opposed to the 5 litres of imported lager in the keg in this offer.

As for the person who used the old close to water joke, they are obviously unaware that the Heineken sold in this country is no longer the weak domestically brewed version that they used to sell over here, but is 5% ABV premium strength imported lager.

You can get 3 x 20 cans of lager when the 3 for £20 0ffers are on - and that kind of make 9 pints for £10 seem well overpriced. Not voting cold thought as this is cheap for a Keg. I always wondered if you could reuse the keg for brewing your own beer. Does anyone know if this is possible?

lucky bloke wish my missus would get me one of these

What a RIP OFF these kegs are always vastly overpriced compared to bottles and cans.

I'll stick to bulk buying £10 crates whenever they come on offer.

Voted COLD.

Nice work...

I bought one in last week's shopping, it tastes disgusting when compared to bottled lager. You really can taste a metallic quality in the beer, can't wait until it's empty so I can reclaim the fridge space back :smiley:

hello my 1st post

just to let you know i bought one of these last week with my shopping and it expires before xmas cos we were gona stock up for new yr so check the date im sure mine was mid november it ran out

sarah :smiley:

thanks, voted hot

9 of the best pints money can buy!

silly question, but are these the ones that you can just use without a beermaster 5000/portapinty XL etc etc??

They have their own little tap on right? and you just need a big enough fridge to put them in?

next question is how many pints do you get!?

this was now 2 weeks ago in co-op so doubt it will still be on anyway

hmm may have look in the wardlerslade one, thats like an actual supermarket too. thanks

Our local Co-Op is in the middle of nowhere (it's the only supermarket on the island), but it generally follows the same offers/prices as its shops on the mainland, so I assume the deal wasn't localised to our store. They had at least 10 of them in stock.

£7 in co-op???
where was that?

These were reduced to £6.99 in our local Co-Op about two weeks ago...

takes all 5litre kegs. though only kegs can find in the shops are heniken. others are online, and work out quite dear that way. though someone suggested aldi do pills kegs for 8quid
from here
i got the one thats says 79pounds, came to bout 85 altogether. cos i thought be better than the prtable one which is only bout 50pounds. but i justthought it looked nicer and sturdyer.

****ing close to water

i have a beer maxx. they do fit them. the only thing that fits draughtmaster is the carsberg/export kegs. thats why i changed my mind and went for the beer maxx. though i love carlsberg export but its a present for him not me after all

What size is the keg?


5 litre, so £2 a litre

Like making love in a canoe.

It's a good deal for these.

I'm in a lucky situation whereby I can buy Heineken cans 6 for £5 - actually works out a better deal.

Still - Heat for this....definitely the best lager in the World by a country mile!

:thumbsup:

What beer dispenser do you have?

I am fairly sure these do not fit the draftmaster (i got one for my brother for his birthday) and these ones have a tap built into them.

Still a good deal though :smiley:

usually 13.78 at tesco BTW
