There are few things better than an ice-cold beer. The way the frothy foam hits your lips, the delicious taste of the hops and the overall relaxing vibes are enough to make even the most difficult of days fade away entirely. Yet, even from a bottle, it’s not quite the same as having a beer fresh from the tap at a bar. The good news is, if you’re willing to spend a little dough, you can bring that same experience home with a kegerator.
We’re not talking about a keg you may have snagged during college for a party (or seven) but rather an actual home-ready keg system you’d find at your local watering hole. Many kegerators are freestanding or easily installable into your existing bar and will provide that luscious, fresh beer taste thanks to their CO2 dispensing system. Additionally, many kegerators will allow you to control the temperature with digital control so you can make it just perfect after a long day.
With that in mind, we’ve rounded up eight of the best kegerators and mini kegerators for your use at home — our selects, below.
