Editors note: Gary has been drinking… again (alcoholic!) so you get yet another beer themed blog post this evening.

I’m going to be perfectly honest - if there’s no beer available on the campground, I want no part of that camping trip. (Okay, so if there’s wine I’ll be super cool, but this post is about beer dammit.)

Everybody knows that a keg of beer is the most efficient way to transport large quantities of beer for a big group. However, it comes with it’s share of drawbacks.

First is that a keg is just damn heavy. I worked in a bar for a short while and trying to lift those things… let’s just say it wasn’t cool.

The next problem is that you need dispensing equipment in order to liberate the carbonated goodness from it’s steel container.

Finally, there’s that little issue of keeping the entire thing cold. Warm beer sucks and is completely unacceptable.

Fortunately the people at Tote-A-Keg have got your back with their Kegaloo 2.5.

These people are geniuses - seriously, if these people ran the country we wouldn’t have to be bailing out insurance companies and banks from going bankrupt and gas would still cost $1/gallon (but that’s another story, let’s get back to talking about beer).

Anyway, they have a whole line of portable coolers (many with wheels) designed to hold kegs and they have all the accessories you need to get said beer from keg to your glass (your hand is still required to get the beer from your glass to your mouth).

For the next big camping trip I go on, I know what I’m bringing… and if you decide you want one too, you can get yourself one at Tote-A-Keg.com.
