Product Analysis: The KegSkin

Welcome. I’ll be analyzing products and deciding whether or not they are worth my parents’ money. First up, KegSkins.

I know what you’re thinking. Fuck is this? My keg doesn’t need clothing. It’s not clothing, idiot. It’s a KegSkin.

I’ve spent some time with this thing and found that it keeps my beer cold and saves me money on ice. It’s true; normally I’d just have the pledges haul 100 pounds of frozen water to my house to cool my beer. But what the hell am I supposed to do during the pledge off-season? Buy ice and carry it myself? I don’t fucking think so. I’ll just slap a KegSkin on that fucker. Anyway, ice melts, and whatever this thing is made of does not.

Let me tell you a little story. Two full beer kegs were placed in an environmental chamber for 24 hours at a temperature of 38 degrees F. Both kegs were then removed and placed in a chamber maintained at 80 degrees F.

This was the result:

Laboratories don’t lie, and neither will I. I approve this product. You can pick one up here.

      Endorsing the KegSkin is most likely the business rationality that inhibited him from entering the marketing world. NF

      There’s scientific data in here. What’d you want me to do? Fuck one of ’em?

      I agree with all of the above. However, if you live in a southern state, you probably aren’t going to have outdoor temps of 80º F during the summer. I’d like to see how temps compare over 3 hours in 100+º heat.

    Even the pledge with down syndrome can see through your marketing ploy. Enjoy free products through promotional advertising on your website much?

      Let’s be honest, you, I, and anyone with common sense would spend 5 minutes on a half-assed “column” in exchange for free Kegskins.

      Brobible.com sold out to these guys already. Knew it was just a matter of time before this site did the same.

    It’s 2012. We can tell when we’re being marketed to. Short column by a new author? Unless we see more of this guy, we can just assume you bought space on TFM.

      Actually, that thing is being sold on Rowdy Gentlemen. He didn’t even have to pay for space here on TFM.

    Why didn’t the lab also test a keg being cooled by ice, seems like some lazy ass biased scientists.
