    Anheuser Busch Beer Keg

    After picking up several appliances from a nice fellow, he offered me an empty Anheuser Busch keg that he had in his basement for several years. It's not dented, but it has seen heavy use. The "Anheuser Busch" stampings are clear and easy to read, though.

    However, it's so cool! Surely there is a collectors market for these things? Anyone know if it's something I could flip?



    Otherwise, I'm going to keep it and find use for it. Any ideas?

    Not really collectable... I used to work for a beer warehouse and they are in everyones back yard.... Kind like the plastic milk crates.. depending on age, older is aluminum and newer is stainless... some people cut them vertically and make a bbq... others cut them horozontaly in the middle and make planters... oorrrrrrrr if it IS stainless, advertise and and some people might want it to make wine...

    lots of options

    I don't think you can scrap(even if you wanted to) any more as everybody was stealing them and scrapping.The yards around here won't accept them.

    How about if you polish it before you sell it, like that one shows. It looks real sharp, might sell for a lot more.
