Bass, Blackthorn Cider, Boddingtons, Caffreys, Grolsch to name but a few!

Thanks for the offer. Debating if I should stick with the half keg or go down the corney route.

Those g type are a b*^%#+d to open....either s-type (hineken) or u type (Guinness) are easier...easiest is corney.....that's why I have spare couplers lol.... Go the corney route for your own sanity

I have both, only because I owned a pub and have all the equipment for snake kegs, I use the cornies for dry hopped beers etc, easier to do and clean....
