Does the Alchemist keg?

Heady cans only

 

Used to be on draft at Prohibition Pig. Is that no longer the case?

 

I've had it on draft a couple places in Vermont - but last time I had it was a year or 2 ago.

 

I had it on tap at The Reservoir in March of '14.

 

It's on tap around Waterbury so They keg. Some cans but I've had it at pro pig and others before as well

 

Heady is no longer available at the Waterbury bars on draft, cans only. Hen of the Wood Waterbury is the only place Im aware of that gets kegs these days.

 

Wow was there in December and could have sworn it was on tap. Weird. It's better in the can anyways. Lol

 

I was there last july and almost every bar in Waterbury had it on tap. Why would they change that? To increase can output?

 

Yeah I definitely had it on tap in October at Blackback.

 

I can not answer your question, but cooperage can be a real pain in the ass. You need to spend the $ for kegs, washer and storage. Plus you have the whole return/exchange program thing.

Why bother with kegs when you can sell every drop than you make within a day of release in cans?

 

Pro Pig had cans only 2 weeks ago

 

Cans are also higher margin.

 

I remember hearing John talk about it during an interview somewhere recently. They've stopped kegging, became a hassle, if I remember correctly.

 

"Hen of the Wood Waterbury is the only place I'm aware of that gets kegs these days."

That is what they posted to me when I asked back in October 2014 on their Facebook page.
