How much does the typical keg cost?

[SLCentral]

Looking to have some people over tomorrow night, and I'm curious as how much it would cost to get a keg from the local liquor store. Obviously renting it...

Thanks!

 

[vi edit]

~$75 for a half barrel and around $45 for a 1/4 (pony).

Figure another $100 deposit for the tapper & keg.

 

[PepePeru]

60-70 bucks?
im sure there's a deposit on top of that too.

 

[kstu]

natural light cost $45 a couple years ago where I went to school. getting into the bud light range was more like $70.

add maybe $15 deposit for keg/tap.

 

[j00fek]

60-100$

It's 39.99 bucks for a 1/2 of Keystone and 49.99 for a 1/2 of Coors Light. College towns FTW.

Keystone was always the default-beruit beer.

Now I have to drive 100miles to the next state to buy a keg.

Keystone, Natty Light, Busch, and the Beast FTW.

I want to build a kegerator. i just do not see myself drinking even a 1/4 keg fast enough


but anyway. prices are pretty good around here. seen half barrel of Miller light for $59+deposit

 

[Corporate Thug]

$60

 

[clamum]

It was in the high thirties for a 1/4 barrel of Bud Light, plus $10 deposit for the keg itself and then like $40 or something for the tap.

Exactly, you could get 3 30 racks of Keystone for 50-60 dollars so 90 beers. Or you could get a keg of Keystone for 45 (after taxes and the deposit getting back) which gets you 160 ish beers. I see no choice, other than 30's being easier to get.

I have to admit that I still drink Keystone on occasion.

You have to believe you can do it man!

That's what I've paid for Miller Lite.

around there... maybe less. In a college town you can get a domestic from 55-65.

I have seen the 30 packs of keystone and miller high life for $9.99 often around here.

 

[broon]

If you are paying $60 for "cheap" beer...spend the extra $25 for a good craft beer. I can get Boulevard for $85 for 1/2 bbl (keg) and Bud/Miller/Coors for $60.

 

[Zolty]

round here you can get a 1/2 barrel of blatz for 30-40

and Junior prom at that.

 

[lokiju]

Used to be $45 or so back in the day when I used to actually buy them.

 

[Whisper]

It'll likely vary a bit by area, but from what I remember, cheaper kegs were around ~$40-50, with something like bud light costing ~$60-70.
