Nothing goes better with welding than beer! That is why I decided to build myself a kegerator! Now this isn’t just any kegerator …it will hold anywhere from 3 to 5 kegs! And I am starting with Guinness, Bass, and Budweiser. So far I have built 2 of the 3 beer towers from 4” sced 10 304 Stainless Steel, and working on the mounting to the refrigerator. Here are some pics of the progress.

Looks good......I guess the Budwiser is for when you don't want to drink beer?

The Bud is for rinsing the Gojo off your hands after being in the shop.

I thought that Bud was what you put in the sample cup when you get drug tested?

Bud
Ok! So bud might not be the best 3rd choice, but you need something for all those college drinking games. It also works good to put out that old oily rag you left on your welding table that has a 3 ft flame coming off it!

I never knew what is inside those towers. I know they are not just to support the tap, could explain it for me?

Beer tower
Basically, Yes just to support the faucet! It is lined with insulation and the cold air of the refrigerator keeps the beer line cold inside. Sometimes you have to add a blower to improve cold air circulation.
