Draught Beer Basics

all about kegs
Kegs are lled at the brewery and delivered directly to your local retailer, ensuring you’ll
be getting the freshest beer possible. Kegs are designed to protect beer from both air and
light, while still enabling rapid dispensing.
Knowing how much beer is in a keg is crucial when choosing a beer dispenser, as well as
for entertaining.
