Anybody Have A Shaefer Freshkeg?

[Schlenkerla]

Does anybody have one of these or do you know anyone who does?

I think these are relatively new in the USA.

Saw them at nhc this year. Looks really cool. Has a chamber that you fill with co2 and another chamber for the beer. no need for a co2 tank.

I've been talking to the sales people, they say they have a cleaning port. I think thats the big concern as to how to get this SOB cleaned.

How does it stay cold?

I'd assume that you'd refrigerate it or keep it on ice.

what's the price on one of those?

 

[Schlenkerla]

A brand new keg is $142 and the tap system is $135. Totaling : $277

Its not too far off considering a new keg from NB is $129 plus another 150 for bottle regulator & tap. From Chicago .net: $292 for a new corny tank & tap.

I was wondering if its worth the convenience. This price was quoted directly from Schaefer. I'm wondering if a distributor could get a better deal.

I asked Keg Connection about what kind of pull they would have on getting better price. I'm waiting to hear back from them.

I'm shocked nobody has one of these!!!

I'm quite naive about this. What's the advantage of this over any other keg system? I see that it has a C02 tank built-in, but it seems to hold much less beer. I guess this is just a better portable system?
