Looking for an insulating jacket for my corney kegs. Camping season is starting. I have a freezer where I'm able to put the Ice jackets in to freeze overnight. Anyone deal with this stuff yet?
I see the 2 main ones are Keglove and Coolbrew. Anyone have any recommendations?
 
ive used/use kegloves. They will keep it cool most of day in the summer. If your trying to find a long term solution they arent that. best case then is a keg cooler Or jockey box. Ive seen a guy selling specialized rubber maid coolers that are essentially an extra large 10 gallon igloo cooler. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B078HDQVS5/?tag=skimlinks_replacement-20

thanks. Eventually I hope to get an old Electronic Corney in line chiller from a buddy that has handled corny kegs for 30 years. This is more temporary so I was looking at the cool brew. I wanted a Jockey box but just haven't had good luck with them foaming and foaming up too much.
Thanks I like that option you gave though
 
Ive used a simple trash can filled with ice too wrapped in towels but that aint gonna last real long outside in any real temps
 
The coolbrew jacket works great with the blue ice sheets. I have also had great results with a neoprene sleeve and the blue ice sheets.

In the Arizona summers I use a combination of the coolbrew jacket, neoprene sleeve, and the blue ice sheets, that keeps kegs cold a long time.
 
also I have used 1/2 kegs in 10 gallon coolers with a picnic tap and a portable co2 system more than a few time son my buddies boat. That works very well
 
I agree. I like the igloo cooler but it seems like a lot of room in storage when not in use. I was leaning towards the cool brew. It seemed like the neoprene wouldn't keep it as cold as the others with the top and bottom being exposed.
Thanks for all the info guys This is exactly when I was looking for
