Why are
kegs important? "There are three key reasons. Firstly, by using a
reusable container and eliminating the cost of glass/corks/foils/boxes
and filling in bulk, we can reduce our cost of goods by about 20-25%.
That's real savings. In using a larger format reusable container we
create no new waste (the reduce and reuse part of the three R's). And
lastly, wine in kegs with the proper gas systems are protected from
oxidizing so for wines by the glass, the wines stay fresh for months. So
often restaurants will either face the decision of either serving
oxidized wines by the glass or throwing it away." - Information taken
