Can't see the pics either, but based on your description, I'm betting it is a cask.

You can put beer in it!
Seriously though, if you're thinking keggle, a cask would not be ideal.

Before you kill a hard to find firkin cask by making it into a keggle you ought to see if anyone is searching for a soulmate for their beer engine. (hint hint, cough, cough....)
on second look is that a golden gate keg? no side outlet near the bottom on a firkin...

might be i dunno...I know that it had some lone star in it but other than that, you prolly know more than me. I just found out today about a cask and naturally carbonating beer with the yeast and a beer engine to pump the beer without injecting it with co2 or adding a priming sugar. Really interesting stuff, Going to defiantly check into this further but I'm wondering bout the beer farts from the yeast, lol. I guess if you don't drink to much of the yeast you'll be alright. Only down side you gotta drink it quick unless it's totally sealed, I'm presuming. Not big enough for a keggle and I don't think I'd want to butcher it either.Maybe time to try something new and kick it old school.Or rather try something old thats new to me, either way sounds like fun and a good learning experience.
