Excellent product November 10, 2009 James C. Hendricks Loved this product this is the second one I've purchased. I had the B-90 model now I have the B-95 and I love them both. The only negative thing i would say would be that heniken needs to make their other beer brands such as Newcastle avaliable to use with the beertender other than that I would recomend this to every man out there unless you don't care for the taste of heniken beer
Very Good results November 7, 2009 M. Muia I recently purchased the BeerTender, I read several reviews stating that it poured too much foam. I have not experienced any issues with foam, even with the first pour. I am not a fan of Heineken beer, but I had heard that NewCastle is coming out with a DraughtKeg as well. I was actually surprised how good the beer was (I did get Heineken Light). Usually Heineken is skunky tasting, but the minikeg was really good. I would suggest this for anyone whom likes keg beer.
Good device for any bar October 28, 2009 Lainie LeBlanc (Houston, TX USA) Bought this for my parents new bar last christmas. We've used it at many of their parties and it always works fine. When you are transporting your keg home from the store and into the house try to shake it as little as possible. Chill it down further in the fridge and pop it into the machine right before you need it. read the ENTIRE instructions BEFORE you start putting the keg in. we RARELY get a foamy beer. It's all about the prep. Highly recommended for any beer lover.
Works well...mostly anyhow...but to what end? October 13, 2009 Chad Harrison Ford (Houston, TX) I really wanted to like this! I really did!!! Sadly though it's a bit too finicky, pieces break too easily and GASP! there's not enough beer!!!
The first time I went to "tap" the keg I put on the little plastic tap. It snapped on quickly and easily. As I maneuvered the hose into the spout of the Beertender it opened on me, spraying precious beer everywhere! Trying to close that off I attempted to remove the tap at the keg, not knowing that the top part of the tap at the keg separated from the piece that actually holds onto the keg. Picture, if you will, beer coming out the open hose and beer shooting straight up out of the keg when that piece separated!
On the bright side I got the first of the beer. On the downside, I probably wasted a good glass or two.
But the final bubble burst for me was the capacity. 5 liters "sounds" like a lot, until you realize, as Heineken says, it's twenty 8 oz beers. Eight oz beers? What is this...1979? When was the last time you had an 8 oz beer? A Little King or another cream ale, perhaps. But any regular beer comes in 12 or 16 oz. So, what it came down to is 1/2 of a college football game for me and my buddy...and then we're off to the liquor store to get more beer.
In short, could have been great but lack of endurance of the product and lack of capacity just shot it all to heck for me.
Fun device October 12, 2009 rwcmick Do you need this Beertender? No. However, it is fun to have around and a great "party trick." I frost glasses in the freezer and combined with the lowest temperature setting on the Beertender provides a relatives foam-free pour. More selection would be nice, but I do like Heineken (obviously) so I'm pleased enough.
