5L beer kegs

A 5L draught keg is designed for storing and serving beer. It's perfect for home use, or to take to a party or to the park as it's very portable.

5L beer kegs measure 28cm x 17cm (height x diameter).

You can store unopened 5L beer kegs at room temperature until the end of the month indicated on the side of the keg (BBD). Once opened, a keg can be kept for 30 days if stored in the machine or in a fridge.

We sell kegs with at least 1 month remaining before the Best Before Date (BBD) indicated on the side of the keg. 5L beer kegs can be used until the end of the month stated in the BBD. After this date, quality may decrease.

Store your 5L beer kegs at room temperature. Make sure to keep 5L beer kegs upright and avoid sudden movements to prevent foaming. Never store 5L draught kegs in direct sunlight or high temperatures to ensure safety.

Your 5L keg should be pre-chilled before use, either in the BeerTender machine (for 15 hours) or in the friddge (for 12 hours).

Do not store 5L beer machine kegs in the freezer. This will diminish the quality of the beer and could lead to more serious outcomes like a keg exploding.

5L beer kegs which are already opened can be stored in your fridge for up to 30 days.

Once you're finished with your kegs of beer, you can check your local council's webiste to find recycling points close to you. Recycling helps recover valuable materials and reduces waste.

5L kegs of beer should not leak. Please contact us if this is the case. If your keg leaks slightly inside the machine, this is not a problem. Please wipe with a damp cloth.

If your keg is pre-chilled it should not foam, although the first glass that you pour from each keg may foamy. This is normal for draught beer. If more than 1 glass is significantly foamy, please contact our Customer Care team. It is helpful if you can record a video of your pour and the resulting foam. Our team may ask you to record yourself pouring again during our troubleshooting process.
