Most of us have many things on our wish list for Christmas. It's nice when we get what we want and not a bunch of gifts that we have no use for or no interest in. The problem is that we often have a long list of people to buy gifts for and we run out of unique gifts to get because gift shopping just becomes a mundane and boring process. We see the same junk in the stores year after year, vying for our attention - and our money.

If you are looking for a unique and useful gift that is sure to be a hit this Christmas season, then think about buying a kegerator. What is a kegerator? A kegerator is basically a small, custom outfitted fridge that is made to house a keg of beer. The fridge part of the device keeps the beer cold and fresh and there is a tap that dispenses the beer from the keg inside.
Just like when you go to a bar and you get a draft beer, a home kegerator operates in much the same way. You can find kegerators that are large enough to hold a full keg of beer, those that hold half kegs of beer, and even mini kegerators that are intended to hold those small mini kegs that only hold 5 liters of beer. The size you get will depend on your budget, the amount of space the gift recipient has to house the kegerator, and how much beer they drink.
Aside from different sizes of kegerators to consider, there are also a few different options. You can buy a single tap kegerator or a double tap kegerator. You can buy an under counter kegerator (great to fit into a home bar!), or even an outdoor kegerator, to be placed poolside or in a kitchen outside. You can even buy a home brew kegerator if you know of someone that loves to brew their own beer. Some kegerator prices can get rather steep, so if you know of someone that would really love one, but you think you can't afford the cost on your own, you can always pool your money with a few people. Better, after all, to get one really coveted and useful gift, than a few so-so ones - don't you think?
Kegerators also come in different colors. The most popular ones are black or stainless steel, but they also come in white. You may find mini kegerators in other designer colors as well. Most standard kegerators will come with a pretty basic looking tap handle, but you can find attractive and fun kegerator tap handles that can be purchased separately, if you really want to spruce up the device.
As for why a kegerator makes such a great gift? Well, for those who love to drink beer, kegerators provide a convenient way to house good tasting beer and to keep it cold. It is cheaper to buy kegs of beer than it is to buy cans or bottles, and draft beer generally tastes better than canned or bottled beer anyway. Not to mention the fact that a kegerator keeps beer fresh longer. It is a great appliance to have for those that love to entertain, whether in their home bar or game room or out by the pool. Simply put, kegerators are a useful novelty to be enjoyed by those that love a great tasting mug of beer in the comfort of their own home.
So this holiday season, consider buying a kegerator for the beer drinker in your life. You're sure to make a big impression - and you'll probably get yourself an invitation to enjoy some great tasting beer - all wrapped up in one convenient package.
