mini keg

Small beer container

A mini keg is a small, typically 5-liter container of beer designed for home use, often with a built-in tap or compatible with countertop dispensers.

They offer draft-style beer without a full keg system: We picked up a mini keg for the party.

Some are pressurized for freshness, others need external CO2.
