We'll be up at Seagrove this Saturday. We have 18 people in 1 house and we're looking for a place to purchase a Keg. I called Emerald Coast Wine and Spirits and they claim I have to drive to Destin or PCB to get one. Anyone know of a place closer to Seagrove?

Maybe I just drank too much of it in college, but I just think domestic draft beer is swill. Imported drafts are pretty good. Plus, if you are at the beach, why not buy cans so you can put them in a cooler and make your beer portable?
They have 18 people...if they drink beer like us, they'd need almost 7 cases for a single beach day! They could use (see link below) , but they wouldn't be too attractive over swimsuits and they'd have to drink fast in this heat!

Damn. I just wish we'd bought more Miller Lite last year before Katrina and all of the beer headed for NOLA got dumped off here. Publix had 18 packs for $4.95 (with coupon). Daughter and boyfriend filled up their car with it. We should have filled up the owners' closets with it.

The link worked. Unfortunately, I couldn't use that device as my belly already looks like that.

We filled our trunks with it, too. Good cold cheap beer on a hot summer day can't be beat. :clap_1:

Wow, I completely forgot about that. Miller Lite is our beer so we were in HEAVEN! I hope it turns into a yearly special (sorry LA,MI,TX,GA). Keep the storms away and the beer coming!

About five years ago, we found two cases of Pabst Blue Ribbon in the pantry of the house where we were staying. How the housekeeper missed it I will never know. Anywho, I put a case in the fridge to chill and tentitavely opened a can and took a sip. Not bad, that PBR. I drank every last can of it.
got any pics?

That stuff is pretty hip now. 2 Restaurants down the street from were serving PBR $1 on tap. Or you could have a $3 Bud

It was during the first few weeks when college classes began -- my guess was they were trying to recruit Freshman and establish brand loyalty for the college students. Just my guess.

Just my guess.Oh, I never saw the ESPN ads. BTW I only saw this price at the Seagrove Publix. When we got back to GA after boarding up, the 18-pack was $12.99 (if my memory serves me correctly, which often it doesn't). That's when we kicked ourselves in the butt for not buying more at the beach.

JB, draft beer, if stored correctly, can be much better than bottled or canned. It's all about how fresh it is. A fresh keg of Sierra Nevada or Anchor Steam is a wonderful thing, way better tasting than bottles of unknown vintage.
I'll have to agree about "regular" American style beers. Nasty and vile are good adjectives.

FYI - most all beer has a born on date or expire date, if not in plain view in code. ;-) You simply have to know a couple of things about the code and get out your calendar to do the math. Most of the beer companies use the Julian Calendar in their coded stamps to either mark the expire date or date produced. It varies from company to company to keep the public out of the know.
I know what JB is talking about with the nasty keg beer comments -- been there and done that. Yes, the keg must be fresh and cold, the tap and lines cleaned, and the container in which it is poured must be made of glass and be clean. If all of that happens, your keg beer will be a "wonderful thing," as John says.

Who needs a container in which to pour it in? Just give me the hose and cut out the middle man.
