What temperature does my keg need to be in order to pour?

We store all of our kegs in a refrigerated cold box kept at a consistent 38°F. For best results, we recommend keeping your keg in a kegerator or jockey box set to the same temperature for home or event use.

While some customers choose to use buckets of ice, we do not recommend this method — but if you do, please make sure the bucket is deep enough to keep the keg fully surrounded by ice as much as possible.

Please note that we are not responsible for foamy beer due to improper storage or temperature. Because of this, we do not offer hand pumps. If you prefer one, we suggest checking with retailers such as BevMo.

Thank you for your understanding!
