What’s Going On With Keg Prices and Availability?

I have an article on this that explains this in detail and details our situation as it has unfolded. The short answer is… bulk availability of used kegs has become a thing of the past. I could provided you with a lot of reasoning behind that, but one illustration I can give you is that AIH has COMPLETELY REMOVED pages for their used ball lock offerings both singles and four packs. Over the years, these offerings had been some of the most reliable and have often been the best deal around.

$30 kegs are gone. Even if a large cache of used kegs are found in I don’t think we’re going to even come close to the prices we saw 10 years ago. Why would someone sell kegs for $30 or $40 when $80 or $90 is the going rate?

Our roundup has been and will continue to be the spot to find the best deals available…

Keg Connection:

MoreBeer:

Used Kegs

New Keg Quick Pick:

This recently released kegs are being offered at an introductory price of just $99.99.  Considering shipping is also free to many US addresses, this is a bargain.

As of this update, I think this is the best generally available new keg deal on the market.

Shipping Sweet Spot Estimations…

For these kegs, shipping is calculated based on where you live. Here’s what I’m seeing…

  • 1 keg – $14.58, $14.58 per keg shipping – $65.56 per keg shipped
  • 2 kegs – $18.27, $9.14 per keg shipping – $64.12 per keg shipped
  • 3 kegs, $20.32, $6.77 per keg shipping – $61.75 per keg shipped
  • 4 kegs (4 x singles) – $22.29, $5.57 per keg shipping – $60.55 per keg shipped
  • 4 kegs (4 pack) – $40.20, $10.05 per keg shipping – $59.80 per keg shipped
  • 5 kegs – $40.20…. $8.04 per keg (per keg shipping costs go up!) – $63.20 per keg shipped

These costs are for me for ball lock offerings. Costs should be similar for all other offerings as well. This will vary based on location.

Keg Pricing Commentary:

It’s a fact… keg prices have been going up. Sometimes way up. For example, this AEB keg spiked up to $179.99. New 5 Gallon Kegs at AIH have gone up drastically in the past year. Pin lock prices have skyrocketed. This Pin Lock offering had been selling for $45 before it nearly doubled to $85.

If you’re in need of kegs or will be in the near future, I think now is the time to buy.

Pin Lock Keg Pricing Commentary:

There’s been a real reversal in used keg pricing. For example, see MoreBeer’s Pin Lock Offering.  I’m guessing this is related to availability. New pin lock kegs are not coming into the homebrewing market and we’ve finally hit an availability wall. Along those lines, this is the best deal I’m aware of for a pin lock keg. If you’re a devoted pin lock user, now is the time to pick some up.
