Yes!!! Thank you!! I'm bartending my first solo private party tomorrow and have nevverr used a keg before. This is the most helpful freakin' how to tap a keg video.
When you first pour beer, don't pour into glasses and throw away. Pour into a pitcher, cover the pitcher with tin foil tightly and refrigerate to keep clod until the head becomes beer, than you can drink that as well. The tin foil is to keep the co2 in the beer so it doessn't go flat.
a hand pump will work, but only if the keg is being consumed in the next 24 hours. A few macro-brews also have a better resistance to oxidation, and can last quite a bit longer than that.....but the one day rule is a pretty good way to go about it. a c02 tank is a must if your going for a kegerator or for a keg that your hoping to last quite a long time (or is of a higher quality than the traditional macro-brews)
Considering we'd go through multiple kegs during the course of a 3-5 Hr. party the air pressurized system doesn't really make a big difference. If you plan on keeping the keg around for a little while though I see your point.
Use block ice, it doesn't melt as fast as cubes do. What kind of beer is in that keg? I see the barrel was once from Pete's brewing. Since they closed in 2011, I was just wondering whose beer is in the keg.
@pirtea it does not cool in less time it just cools more. it raises the melting point of the ice so that it will stay as ice longer. so i guess it might cool faster but it will stay colder longer.
American beer is slightly alcoholic urine. It has sucked since the Prohibition era, when Americans couldn't have alcohol at all. We've only just been able to (legally) import certain European beers into some states (and still not into some other states) because of the "high alcohol content" in them.
+Mindraker1 we drink American beers here. bud is 5% would hardly call that weak. was wondering more about the quality of the beer from the keg vs beer from the tin/can
Yes, but you usually buy them direct from the brewers an pick them up, more than likely they won't deliver. You will most likely have to pay a deposit on the barrel
hehe hvis du har bevilgning ere bare og ringe ringnes så kan du låne tappetårn og alt du treng.. hvis ikke må du nøye deg med en 5 liters heinikendunk fra kiwi :P men ja hadde vært fett hvis man kunne kjøpe en slik en lovlig :)
thanks frat guy, this was helpful.
Lmao
What does frat mean?
Right 😂😂😂🥂🥃✌️

How to tap a keg, brought to you by Sigma Alpha Epsilon
Those words existed before 2022????
Is this what you learn in college?
This is what I learned on the streets
@@good_vibes2026 the streets of a block party near a college campus.
@@MinnesotaFats 😄 nice
Thank you Chow! My friend and I just tapped our first keg using your excellent video! CHEEERS!
the beer looks terrible
Excellent! Party saver. Took about 6-8 beers before we got a good cup.

im 12 and i know how the properly tap a keg.awesome
wow this is gonna come in handy im having a beerfest at my house next month lol thanks for the upload !!! cheers !!!
Where can I order a prefilled keg for parties 🤔
put some dry ice at the bottom of the tub and regular ice on top. Add about 1-2 liters of water. Great effect for a party.
Thank you so much for your quick informative video. Straight to the point!
5:5 chill to pull ratio - def got a unanimous bid - frat men save lives
Insane camera quality
Dude you committed more party fouls in this video than i have my whole life! But i guess it's for a better cause.
You were right... I was doing it alllll wrong. Thanks for the video!
very good video keg master. we just bought a keg just now and got foamy beer but not I think we're good now thanks

They might taste ok with oxidation, but they will be flat as hell, no way around that. Science and all.
Thanks, we don't even get kegs of beer to buy where I am from but I was curious how it's handled
Considering we'd go through multiple kegs during the course of a 3-5 Hr. party the air pressurized system doesn't really make a big difference. If you plan on keeping the keg around for a little while though I see your point.
Will never use this information, but I guess it's good to know.
omg..... flipping up the lock, I should have watched this first, keg tapped, thank you!!
At my sisters wedding and couldnt figure it out. Thnx for the help.
thanks

You NEVER pour out a beer.
Not even to put out a grass fire.
Or a baby on fire
Why wouldn’t you just put it in a pitcher and let it settle for later
pouring out beer is alcohol abuse
I appreciate your KoTH knowledge
Thanks for uploading
Thanks For the Tips man For real
Looks like that fly wanted a taste! @1:28
it amazes me that people need this video.
wouldntyaliktono what you doing here then bro?
hey thank you this was a great episode
thanks frat guy! nice watch!!
Is it the same principle with the bronco type pump.? Cheers
You wanna know a good drinking game? Every time this guy says 'foam' or 'foamy', take drink.
3 or 4 drinks not really interesting
looks like that fly wanted a drink 1:28
John Mayer come through with great Intel.
Yep -- there's a lot of ladies (and some guys, I'm sure) that would be happy to learn more about tapping from him.

I would make an ice slurry with ice water and salt that will really cool it down
great vid. weird detail I noticed, you look like youre 18 but your hands look like youre 50
thank you so much
@pirtea it does not cool in less time it just cools more. it raises the melting point of the ice so that it will stay as ice longer. so i guess it might cool faster but it will stay colder longer.
Settle... lol what?
Because of pressure and transport pour out the first 5 cups, what?
You're still doing it wrong

Gennaro was able to tap his keg right
Tapped more then his fuckin keg alright
well done sir, well done...
very helpful.
Anyone knows where can i buy this?
ebay
In the US, you may be old enough to tap beer, but you are not allowed to drink it under 21.
have any UK guys tried one of these American kegs is it as good as draught beer, better than cans?
American beer is slightly alcoholic urine. It has sucked since the Prohibition era, when Americans couldn't have alcohol at all. We've only just been able to (legally) import certain European beers into some states (and still not into some other states) because of the "high alcohol content" in them.
+Mindraker1 we drink American beers here. bud is 5% would hardly call that weak. was wondering more about the quality of the beer from the keg vs beer from the tin/can
Bud? You mean pisswazzer?
LOL the only people trashing American beers are the Americans
+Mindraker1 I know. What's the difference between the canned piss water and keg piss water. Just answer the question
DAT zoom at 0:07 !!! GOLD
JD Beebe - KEGMASTER
What should I be expecting when i go to buy a keg? like price, how long it takes, etc..
What size tub was that ?
thank you
If you live near a hockey rink you can steal the ice from the zamboni...at least thats how we do it in Canada
You are absolutely correct..wasn't concentrating..my bad..I'll blame the beers that night..lol
what color is his undershirt?
you are the ultimate tool but this did help
Frat guy tapping a beer keg, can we have a better stereotype.
Almost 20 yrs late, where was you tube at when we were kids
Alright then, think of the beergut.
The. Beergut.
Believe me, no one wants a beer gut. :3
@bsthebeast In germany you can drink beer when you are 16 years old.
where can u even buy a keg.
I actually enjoy champagne in a red solo cup. It just feels right.
Gonna have to find out how much one of these cost over here in Norway;)
0:22 magic gremlin prevents keg from being stolen :D
Maybe about $100.00 a half keg (Miller Light in PA, March 2013) plus deposit (about $30.00)...some smaller places you have to order ahead of time
Note to self, wait 2 hours before tapping. Thanks frat guy 👍🏼
How much does one of these kegs cost anyways?
UR doin it Rong!!!!!111!!!
Yes, but you usually buy them direct from the brewers an pick them up, more than likely they won't deliver. You will most likely have to pay a deposit on the barrel
informative
oh god, that beer looks awful.
awesome***
Fuck yeah JD, thanks bro 😎
haha i kept thinking is he saying cake or keg . LOL
I'm watching this while taking a shit. Thanks for the keg information 👍
2:10 What do I do after that?
Very misleading.
Underrated.
beer straight from a keg and beer from a draft, are two different things.
@ascbeerman No, you can drink them yourself!
Should be called “how to oxidize your beer”
Just get a kegerator.
I mean if it’s for a party the beer will be gone by the end of the night
Holy shit he's wasting a lot of beer...
IT WAS FOR SCIENCE.
You obviously don't know shit
It's foam, as in it's mostly air.
Wow, really? Brilliant deduction Holmes.
Nerflover10097 What I meant was you're not actually wasting a lot of beer since most of it is foam/air.
looks the same going in as it does coming out.
That doesn't look like a beer, more like ice-tea.
The second you hook up some jank ass pump to a keg, you're doing it wrong. C02 for the win.
I knew this was a old ass video
Looks like that fly wanted a taste at 1:28.
now all u gotta worry about is the cops busting your party and losing the money box
only pump while pouring
Is that a dixi cup? "I had 16 beers, bro!"
Now all you have to is find a way to obtain a keg.
Lol im underage but i feel like drinking beer now
WRONG. Cool it down then use the relief valve to let all the pressure out, then pump with the tap open. Always pump with the tap open. Noob frat boy.
who likes drinking foam?
wow... this video isn't that popular, 6 comments in the last 3 months...
As non American, I find the whole aspect of College and Frat Houses weird.
the amount of times you said foamy beer hurts me. its not the end of the world
Must be from Wisconsin;p
hehe hvis du har bevilgning ere bare og ringe ringnes så kan du låne tappetårn og alt du treng.. hvis ikke må du nøye deg med en 5 liters heinikendunk fra kiwi :P
men ja hadde vært fett hvis man kunne kjøpe en slik en lovlig :)
I'd tap that...
If you don't finish your keg at a party, it wasn't much of a party.
this guy looks pretty NF
cause you can get like 200+ cups of beer from a 15 gallon keg
