Best Outdoor Kegerators of 2024

Which Outdoor Kegerator is Right for You?

Your college partying days may be behind you, but that doesn’t mean you can’t get solid usage from a keg. In fact, there’s plenty to love about kegs! Buying in bulk always saves money over time, and drinking from a keg means you’ll have fewer bottles and cans to trash after a night spent cheersing on your patio. Still, odds are you don’t want your backyard to resemble a frat house with a keg just left lying around, and beer in a tapped keg goes bad in as few as 8 hours. An outdoor kegerator, however, can solve all those problems. The beer will last much longer — as long as 120 days when pasteurized — and stay ice cold inside a stylish and durable outdoor kegerator.

But which one is right for you? Why not start your search with “the best one?” Our experts have already done the hard work of picking out a few of those for you, using each kegerator’s quality, performance, and features as a litmus test. That’s how they’ve done things for more than 20 years testing and selling outdoor living products, and they’re not about to stop now! So, why don’t you take advantage of that wealth of experience and browse our top-rated outdoor kegerators?
