The micro breweries will purchase the old two prong barrels and use them.


What the hell is a ball tap?


Sankey.


Thanks, I've never heard it referred to as a ball tap.


I have the Sankey coupler for domestic brew (as IF I might drink any...

what
the hey, it came with the basic keg cooler setup) and I have the

hoff-stevens
coupler for an occasional Yeungling's even though that's never been used.

I
have a coupler for Bass and, the one that's always in use, Guinness. Will

a
ball tap render my Sankey coupler a place in the antiquities and curios

hall
of the zymological history museum?


No, but you can forget the Hoff-Stevens for Yuengling; they're in the
process of switching to Sankey.


Then the Hoff-Stevens coupler goes in the antiquities and curios collection.
