I was looking for a low cost way to keg homemade cider and came across the discussions of the Tap-a-Draft systems and the miller/coors Home Draft thingies (MCHDT). I decided to try to locate a MCHDT, called several distributors in the pittsburgh area and got several replies that they normally carry them but don't have any in stock. Called another place and the proprietor called his miller supplier who said that they had 9 in inventory that were recently expired and couldn't be sold and that the item was discontinued!
I called several more distributors and was lucky enough to find one (and only one) that had a few still in stock. I bought them up. So for less than the price of the TAD starter kit from Midwest, I have 3 taps, 3 bottles and about 4.5 gallons of mediocre beer.
Just thought I'd put out a little alert for anyone that was thinking of using this system. They may no longer be easy to come by.
Cheers,
Carl
