Default Is my beer ready to keg?

I brewed my pale ale on December 26th. 12 days later I moved it into the secondary(it reached its final gravity of 1.014.) It is now another 8 days and I want to put it in my keg and drink it on friday. Does this seem reasonable to do?

While the beer will be "green" it is totally doable and you can force carb the thing and have it ready to drink tomorrow if that is what you want to do.

It's ready to go into the keg, but I wouldn't recommend drinking all of it this weekend.
