Hi all,

edit: done Looking for a final keg for conversion. Budget is $30.

straight walled
stainless steel
full size 1/2 barrel
unmodified

I'm in Portland, OR and my local search is stuck at 2 out of 3 kegs. Help!

THanks for looking.

Have you tried contacting Widmer? They sell off old "retired" kegs all the time. If you're lucky they'll have some available now, if not you'll be put on a waiting list.

THAnks for the tip Kilted. I've tried columbia distributing with no luck, but I will try Widmer next week.

Cherry City Metals had old kegs for $85 each last time I called them.

Little steep for my taste but if you are in a pinch.

Forget Columbia...they will be of no help as they don't own the kegs, the breweries do. I got 4 from Widmer...First 2 with no wait, second two with a 6 month wait.

saber, thanks for the link. unfortunately $85 is about 3x what i'm looking to spend. i'm not that desperate....yet.
