Plastic Keg.

What does that mean?

This story caught my eye because my oldest grandson is working at a brewery in NY during his summer break from college this year. It is overnight work, and he is charged with unloading the trucks full of empties and then reloading them so that they are ready to go out first thing in the morning on their rounds. Hours are crummy, but it pays well. I'm sure that cleaning the kegs will be part of the job.

Failure analysis will uncover easily where the initial rupture began about the tear and other physical properties’ analysis will determine if it was under significant load, prolongoned load or not. I can’t imagine this will remain unsolved and unexplained if a real materials analysis lab gets inolved. Hopefully standard procedures for handling/emptying these were followed, but who’d want to admit that after the poor fellow died if they fear it would cost his family or themselves. A smart CEO might already have promised otherwise if just for industry safety and the knowledge.

Don't worry ... he's working in the warehouse and the keg cleaning is usually an automated brew house process in modern breweries

Basically it means I don’t trust plastic.

Give me the old fashioned kegs.
