No Hunger, or Warm Beer
 

"A trio of college fraternity buddies hopes to end the problem of warm beer. Adam Hunnell and two of his "brothers" are using a $20,000 entrepreneur grant to develop the "Keg Wrap." Hunnell a grad student at Cleveland Case Western Reserve University, compared the Keg Wrap to a heating blanket that chills instead of warms, powered by an electric socket or a car's lighter. "We had kegs with a party and we thought, 'Theres got to be a better way than sticking a keg in a trash can and creating a big mess'," co-developer Nathan Slavin recalled.

This would make life easier when throwing parties

Re: No Hunger, or Warm Beer
 

Interesting.

i can't believe they were given a $20k grant for that.

A small investment really. If it turns out a product, you know they'd sell 'em.

hmm.
We already have keg fridges and keg coolers, etc... guess this is just a step up in the world.
(keg cooler- the beer goes through coils on way from keg to tap, sometimes can freeze up, not good at a wedding)

Never had a keg cooler freeze up on me.

But I normall don't drink beer from kegs at parties.

Too much of a beer snob for that :D

I heard if they get on the market theyd go for around $150. Maybe a nice Christmas present, but otherwise Ill stick to ice.

Same here, I refuse to drink beer from kegs.
