    Yeah but you have to get used to pouring, its quite easy to waste the first half of the keg pouring froth!

    Yeah, it is just 10 cans. They are often €15 in tescos, a while ago they were €15 with 25% back in points or off at the till. I got a fair few, €11.25 each, so €1.13 "per can"

    With the clubcard points you can quadruple them for apache pizza vouchers, so buy a keg at €15, get 25% back in vouchers and quadruple them for your original €15 back in pizza vouchers. (of course you have to wait until you get all your points etc)

    A few barmen have posted here before saying it is far harder to pour from the mini keg, I would agree. I try to submerge the spout in the beer which helps, also do it over a sink or out the back and discard the very first bit of foam, it seems to grow once you have foam in it.

    any chance of a cheap booze sticky? There is always a thread popping up about cheap drink so maybe it could be handy to keep it under the one thread! Or would this be promoting binge drinking as the government says?
