Ok so we have this Keg of imported beer. A regular tap won't work. Where in the name of Satan can I get a metric keg tapper. We have called just about every liquor store in Atlanta. No luck.

Damn metric system. If there is one reason WWIII should be started it would be forcing other countries back to the American system. Argh!!! A 8 gallon Keg but no Tap.

Come on, welcome to the 20'th century.
Then, once you've found your way there, you can enter the 21'st, and join the happy countries using the metric system :D

Theres your problem. You're calling liquor stores. Call the local import beer distributor and they may have more information.

Several of the liquor stores around here carry import beer kegs, but won't sell the tap unless you buy the tap. There is a place that has the taps but they close at five... I think this is a lost cause at 9:30.

I think you mean the imperial system, right? Why would you want to stick with something developed by a bunch of Brits? ;-)

So they won't sell you the tap unless you buy it... strange people... :confused:

You yanks can't complain about the metric system, after all you took the imperial measurement system but forgot to keep the actual size of the units. :)

Well the keg is still in the fridge. Haven't gotten a tap yet. We ended up drinking a case last night instead. Bleh... damn metric system.

Yep we got the keg open tonight. The beer is good.

BTW, I meant buy the keg to get the tap. In my rush to find a viable tap I was typing faster than my mind could process. :D
