I'm going to be putting 3 or possibly 4 faucets in the collar of my keezer build. What type/model should I be considering, and how can I tell (before actually buying them ahead of time) what size holes to drill and how far apart (minimum) they need to be. Also, I don't want to buy 'junk' that I'll be disappointed with and end up replacing anyway. TIA!

No brainer for me - Perlicks either 425 or 525's. Any other of the economy types you will have sticking faucets and it will be a PITA to pour.

I went with 4 taps on my recent build. I used x3 425's and one stout faucet.
 
I use the Perlick 525 and have no regrets. The extra money is worth it
 
The 525s seem to be the common census of the boards and most other places I've read. I have four of them sitting ready to go in my collar once I finish it. I'm hoping to get a lot more work done on it this weekend.
