Doesn't fit in my fridge. Warm.

Just bought 10... Cheers! :smile:

If you prefer cans, Tescos are doing a 12 * 440ml Speckled box (5.28L) for £11 at the moment. Cans fit in the fridge and retain pressure till the ring is pulled :wink:

1 - If your getting foam for the first few pints you havent left it to stand long enough. Needs to rest in the place your keeping it for the day at least. If your buying it, putting it down then opening it your going to get just foam.

2 - The tip to getting the pints out properly is to use the pressure relief at the top. Slowly open it as your pour your beers.

If its going flat too quickly youve opened the pressure relief at the top too much too quickly and its got no air in the keg.

Last 2 Ive had Ive had fine following that and I got a good 5 days out of it. My friend brought one round a few months back, plonked it down in my kitchen and opened it and got the result you said.

Hic 3 Days?????
Mine lasted 30 minutes, perhaps i can return for a refund Hic....

what do i do with the empty budvar keg?

Got 8 cornies here, 4 fit in the keezer at any one time. For heading out, I'll just draw some out into plastic bottles and top up co2 using one of these carbonation caps


Which also comes in handy for cleaning the beer lines!

Budvar is an amazing Czech beer. Rated very highly on the worldwide beer taste scale.
There's 2 valves on the tins, one for pouring and one on top to regulate the air flow being drawn in, if your getting froth u need to close this up a lot!
Never had any issues myself in either pouring or getting through a tin over 2 nights or 1 heavy night.

Both correct. Mini kegs generally more portable though.

My night sorted. Heat.

They £10 the Bud in store because by the looks they still full price?

Is this offer on in Scotland? Can't see anything mentioned on the website about exclusions so I'm guessing so. Brother wants me to head up.... :smiley:

all 4 in the consett store. the kegs are just as you walk in the store.

I have four in my kegerator! I do have about 10 of these as it makes bottling less painful.

Heat added, just bought a Hobgoblin Gold in Morrison's North Shields :smiley:

As been said , we got some of these over Xmas. The first few pints are just like from the pub! But I would only say after no more then two days and they are flat. And it is a skill getting the last pint out.

Thanks ordered some Speckles. Shame the others aren't available online as I absolutely refuse to enter our local Morrisons!

great for anyone who does homebrew, as the empty kegs can be reused.
As empty kegs are £5-£6 each - it makes the beer even cheaper.

Anyone with empty kegs, could try selling them on EBay. Homebrewers know replacement bungs can be purchased cheaply & Co2 canisters used, along with dedicated keg dispensers like the one above or a Party Star Tap

Or even better buy a Corney keg if your into homebrewing, you'll never regret it. Once you get your first one they seem to breed and before you know you'll have a small family of them in the shed.

Exactly right. Only makes sense to buy a £50 CO2 tap plus bungs & gas if you are reusing them for homebrew. Unless you plan to drink a lot of mini kegs I suppose.

Just bought 10... Cheers! :smile:

If you`re struggling with fridge issues or faffing about with pouring and storing, then this is probably a better deal.
18 x 500 ml bottles for £21 (9 litres) as opposed to 10 litres for £20 (2 kegs)

Brought one of these at Christmas and it was sour,took it back to morrisons and they wouldn't refund.
Hard to keep cool,rather have bottles

Probably the best reason to buy the Hobgoblin or Speckled hen then.

How long do these last once you have started drinking them? And I mean that in a once opened type of way.

Doesn't fit in my fridge. Warm.

Picked up speckled hen in Burton on Trent mozzers so not just online !

Cheers

I love wobbly anyone know if Carterton has any? Cheers.

Anyone know the dimensions? Not much point if it won't fit in my fridge :/

Good deal.The Warsteiner is a hefty brew...had some at Xmas and was staggerin around like that guy who had to be helped over the line at the London Marathon !! ;-)

Hobgoblin Gold 5 litre kegs also £9.99 in Tesco.

Look good but warm and flat. And not much cheaper than separate bottles.

Cheers, Franky, didn't want to travel over and there's none there - will go in first thing (mine shuts at 10pm so I'm cutting it a bit fine).

plenty of stock of all kegs in morrisons fishponds bristol. they're at the front of the store near the toilets.

The warsteiner kegs are excellent, good pints

cold...not in my local Morrison's in crawley... ☹️☹️☹️☹️

Nice will pick a Budvar up.

what are the lagers like, i dont like to malty ?

Morrisons Outland Rd Plymouth has the Bud at £12 saw it yesterday strange

Bought the Budweiser at Christmas. Will definitely give this a miss! Was basically a pint of foam. No thanks!

Exactly this

Never understood why more Beer/Cider isn't sold in kegs. Just look at the success of the Koppaberg Keg!

All £16 in my local

Only speckled in Warrington :disappointed:

Check the sell by date on the cans. I bought some on the offer before Christmas and the dates ranged from the end of March till August.

aah man. add this deal to the half price steak and it looks like there really is more reasons to shop at morrisons. heat for the warsteiner.

Heat.... Loads of all 4 brands in Welwyn Garden City Morrisons. Will 2 fewer HG Golds than when i walked in!.

Yes a pull out one at the bottom.

Interesting. I'm not sure how you get in them either. Do they come with a tap?

Thank you John184

Got the Old Speckled at xmas, will give the Goblin a try this time around.

Anyone know if the Budvar is imported or brewed in the UK with all those lovely added chemicals ?

Thanks NRP I know what this weekend is gonna involve :smile:
