Default Ontariobeerkegs Announcement.

Just want to update the community quickly on recent events. Last night I suddenly and expectantly took the plunge and left my job of 13 years to run Canadian Supplier of draft beer and keg equipment

It a scary move and me and the SWMBO are not quite over the shock yet but we are going to take a stab at it and optimistically venture down this road. I would like to thank the community for its support and in turn we are now going to be able to offer even faster support via email and phone then in the past. It will make emails easier for me since half of them will not be answered in a company washroom as I hide any more (Bet you did not want that image!).

So over the next few months I will actually have time to do the projects I have not had time for:

-Better product descriptions and pictures

-More options

-Debating the "live chat" function to have instant answers about website products/services

-Soon our kegging kits will be as assembled as possible before shipping.

-FAQS for the questions that are asked most, like "How do I get this 3/16 hose on a barb.

-Youtube channel showing basic installs.

-Beaning that pesky kid down the street with a nice compact snowball.


Thanks again to our customers for making this happen. And a special thank you to my former boss who I am not sure yet if found my breaking point or my starting point.

Sincerely,
Patrick
Canadian Supplier of draft beer and keg equipment
1-855 KEG BEER

Good luck, your prices are good. I'm sure you will do well. I just wish there was a cheaper option to ship to the states. Maybe I'll just go on a road trip.

Good luck Patrick, I already order many time from you and I could not believe that good service was on a side job.
By the way, your deal are killing me and make me buy stuff I had plan for a year later.

Was killing me as a side job. I think my homestead will be in better shape with one 12 hour a day job then 2!

As a Canadian I can raise a glass and mumble something about irony. Thanks for all the warm wishes.
