An 18-year study by the National Institute on Aging found that 50-plus men who consumed a drink a day during middle age scored significantly better on cognitive tests later in life than did non-drinkers.

Kegerator – The Sweetest Taste

So I just recently moved into this great house we got with a beautiful pool. I swear it looks just like Key West in our back yard. Well anyway my brother decided we should build a kegerator, and since we had already bought a nice new fridge the old one was going to be left at the old house anyway, I quickly agreed.

So with very little effort on our parts we purchased a keg conversion kit for around $100.00 bucks. The installation into the old fridge was super easy. We took out all the shelves, drilled a whole in the front for the tap, went to our local keg supplier, and within an hour had Miller Light pouring (didnt want to go expensive the first time). Adjusting the pressure was not that difficult, but it did take some tweaking to get the perfect pour. For anyone who wants to try this I recommend pouring into a picture to begin with, this will save you a ton of wasted beer.

The cost for buying beer by the Keg has saved us a lot of money, made for less bottles hanging around, and we actually think we drink less since we are no longer racing to see who can get the last bottle out of the pack.

Anyone else have any experiences with their own kegerators?

    I purchased a kegerator when I moved into my apartment, in my opinion the best thing I could have purchased. Such a save on money, filling a keg is a lot cheaper than buying case after case. The practicality of it just helps out also.

    Couldn’t agree more Zach. We have a store called Aardvarks near me and the owner stocks about 70 different kegs ranging from $60 bucks to a couple of imports that are around $240 bucks. One day I may have to splurge on one of those imports.
