Okay, so, I’ve been seeing these Square Kegs all over the place lately. I mean, they’re like, the new thing, right? Everyone’s talking about them. So, naturally, I had to see what all the fuss was about. I decided to grab one and, you know, put it through its paces.
First off, getting my hands on one was pretty easy. I just went online, found their website, and ordered one. It arrived pretty quickly, which was nice. No waiting around for weeks. I was like a kid on Christmas, I ripped the box open and there it was. It looked pretty slick, I gotta say, not just some clunky old cooler.
So, I decided to take this bad boy to a friend’s BBQ. Filled it up with my favorite craft beer, which was a breeze, by the way, and then, I made sure to pump it up with CO2. I kept it at the right temperature and pressure, just like it says to do, and guess what? The beer stayed fresh. I’m talking 45-60 days kind of fresh, which is insane! Oh, and if you’re wondering, I’m not using a party pump (air), because then your beer will only last for, like, 8-12 hours. No, thank you!
I also experimented with some other drinks. Made some killer mimosas for Easter brunch, and it worked like a charm. It’s not just for beer, which is cool. My friends were seriously impressed. At first they were a little skeptical. My friends even joked a little when I pulled it out of its carrying case, but once they saw it, and tasted the perfectly chilled beer, they were all over it. It’s super convenient, especially when you’re on the go. Fits right in the fridge, no problem. And it’s way more than just a cooler. It’s like a mini fridge that keeps things cold, and fresh for a long time.
My buddies’ thoughts
- My buddy James said it was “the best thing since sliced bread.” High praise from a guy who loves his beer.
- Eric, another friend, was blown away by how long it kept the beer fresh. He was expecting it to go flat after a few hours, but nope. Still bubbly and delicious days later.
I even saw online that this company, Square Keg, they’re doing pretty well. Apparently, they made a deal on one of those investor shows, and now they’re raking in millions. Good for them, I guess. They definitely made a solid product.
Honestly, this thing is legit. It does exactly what it says it will do. Keeps your drinks cold, keeps them fresh, and it’s super easy to use. It is even in use every single day. Only thing I’d say is maybe they could come up with a way to refill it without taking the tap apart. That would make it even better. But even as it is, I’m giving this thing a solid thumbs up. It’s a game-changer, for sure.
If you’re on the fence about getting one, just do it. You won’t regret it. Seriously, it’s worth every penny. I’d say, based on all the reviews I’ve seen, and my own experience, it’s a solid 4.8 out of 5.
