Whether you are partying inside or designing an outdoor kitchen for backyard fun, you can take your entertaining to the next level when you serve beer the way it’s meant to be enjoyed: on tap. Using a kegerator keeps the beer cool, and it’s classy. And choosing the best kegerator for your home bar is all about matching the ideal capacity and layout with your budget.

Many high-end kegerators offer flexible setups that allow for single, double or triple tap options and multiple interior configurations. For instance, in a convertible kegerator, you might fit two or three slim quarter or sixth barrel kegs, or one and a collection of canned and bottled beer. Alternatively, you could devote the space to a single half-barrel keg.

When shopping for a kegerator, you will want to anticipate the dimensions that your space can accommodate, leaving room for any other bar appliances, like a wine cooler or beverage fridge.

The kegerator fridge marries practicality with style, keeping your beer deliciously cold while . Best of all, when you have your own beer on tap you will not only offer your guests the best beverage options, but you can also support your local brewery, or begin brewing your own beer! Imagine inviting your guests to try some of your own home-brewed IPA.

If you want to become the undisputed best host in the neighborhood, you might also consider investing in a top-notch grill and outdoor pizza oven. Then, you can take the party outside and make your guests at home by setting up outdoor speakers, comfy patio furniture and heat lamps or a fire pit for chilly nights.

For an indoor bar setup, leave plenty of space to display your favorite glasses, and consider enhancing your non-alcoholic drink options by including a custom soda maker.
