Does anybody on the blog have a Kegerator they would recommend ?

Got promoted at work and this is my victory lap that my wife signed off on. 

Looking in the 550 dollar range, want to hold a half barrel of bush light

That is the one that I just bought, make sure you use the 10% coupon that Bed, Bath, and Beyond mails all the time.  Its probably the only reason a man would have to go into a Bed, Bath, and Beyond.


EDIT:  I put the wrong one up there, just updated it.

Doesn't appear to have the best reviews unfortunately.  How has your experience been?

Its been fine, one reviewer seems like a moron to me because he couldn't put it together (when it is very easy).  The other reviewer said it didn't fit a European keg, I am not drinking the European keg, I am drinking Busch Light and occasionally splurge on a Coors Light and it fits it fine.  I enjoy the ice cold beer at about half the cost of buying cans.  Very easy to clean.

Begs the question "why would anyone invest $550 to drink Busch Light?"

I got this one as a gift (it was run past me first, though):

http://www.amazon.com/EdgeStar-Full-Size-Kegerator-Cooler/dp/B0010ZC6G0

It's been pretty nice so far.  Description says it doesn't hold some kinds of macrobrew kegs, so it might not be compatible with your Busch Light, but I'll never find out for sure.

Two of the people I was hoping would reply haha. 

I have thought about building my own, but beyond thinking about it I didn't really get too far.  If I were building this on my own it would slide way down the priority ladder and not sure when it would happen. 

And I already have a wine fridge that I have turned in to my Old E fridge stocked with 40s

BUSCH LIGHT IS A PREMIUM LAGA!   said in a terrible boston accent. 

But honestly I enjoy some cheap beer from time to time.  I would probably get some nicer beer as well but my theory on the kegerator is this. 

I want a kegerator to hold my stock of cheap generic beer that I can have any night of the week.  If I am gonna get a microbrew or nicer beer I am gonna wanna rotate that and try new things so getting a 1/6 keg or something probably doesn't make sense for my purposes.

Thanks, this is one that I have been looking at.  What kinda kegs have you tried in this?

Just homebrew "Corny" kegs.  Works well with them though - there's been a little problem with trub clogging up the lines, but that's more of a keg/brewing problem than anything with the fridge itself.

If they make it, I'd recommend Narragansett.  it's not expensive and a darn fine beer without the premium price.  If it's good enough for Captain Quint, it's good enough for all.   (it's actually much better now than when I remember as a kid since a new brewer brought it back from extinction)

Nastygansett! $5.50 for a sixer of tallboys. The best of the worst.
At least a goldfish with a Lincoln Log on its back goin' across your floor to your sock drawer has a miraculous connotation to it.
