But I got a really cool Fathers Day present yesterday. Four hours to brew two batches! Thats right, my father in law brought over another outdoor cooker and brew kettle and we fired them up side by side. Before we were able to light the fires though, I had to help lug a chest freezer up some stairs and then into and out of the pickup. Where did it end up, and what does it have to do with beer?

Aaah, theres the real fun. That chest freezer just happens to have a two inch hole in the lid with a single tap tower sticking out of it! Yes, the kegerator is once again ALIVE! Whats a kegerator? A specialized beer serving appliance. Want to know how to build one? Stick around Brew Dad and I’ll share my secrets.

The kegerator in my family room is on loan until I can acquire another freezer or refrigerator to convert. The price of the loan is fixing it up. Taking the single tap tower off and putting the double tap brass tower on, finishing the drip tray and adding a laminate top and rails.

Pictures of the progress will definitely be shared here!

One fine day, two beers brewed and two more chilling in the new kegerator! Can anyone ask for more?!?

Cheers!
