Abstract
As a former keg salesman, I have been asked hundreds of times if there is an efficient and cost-effective way to track kegs. In 2009 there weren’t really any options. Today there are a lot of keg tracking providers out the​re, but it can be a challenge for brewers to understand the advantages, disadvantages, and limitations of the different services being offered. In today’s cluttered ma​​rketplace, brewers need to understand the difference in technologies and the claims made by each, but they also need to understand what is not being said, and why.
