My lager is two weeks into my three week fermentation. I have a pressure barrel and bottles for the next stage. Which is preferable bottling or pressure barrel?
 
I have about 8 kegs and enough bottles for another 10+ batches probably. I always bottle "big beers" - because I don't want them taking up keg space for a year. Likewise, I always keg lagers - because I don't want to try to stuff my fridge full of bottles of 8 weeks while they lager.
So, for simplicity, if you have a lager, I would keg it because that is the easiest way to store and lager your beer when it needs a lagering period. That is just my thoughts.
