As much as I'd love to eat a smoked pig, the "free" bit is very appealing. Now to find a way to get down from Saint John with a keg. Will I need to find a way to bring CO2 & something to chill it or will someone have a spare tap on a jockey box that I could clip into? (Ball lock/Pepsi). I may have to give up and bring 2-3 growlers depending how the next few weeks go.
Brewing right now: whatever is going on tap at Stillwell in a few weeks.

CO2 is definitely taken care of, jockey box is another story. I bring my rolling garbage can, fill it full of ice, and then serve from the keg inside there, from a picnic tap. Ghetto, to be sure, but hopefully the beer makes up for the appearance!

I will also have a box capable of 3, maybe 4 kegs.
At Alexander Keith's we follow the recipes first developed by the great brewmaster to the absolute letter. :wtf:
