So when I bought this house I found a really cool insulated Keg in one of the outbuildings, it has/had beer in it and at the time I didn't know what I would do with it.
Fast forward 10 years and I want to turn it into a boiler. So I go out with the intention of cutting off the insulation to reveal the keg underneath.....
Nope... It's a rubberized/plastic keg with a metal flange... I had no idea that was even a thing... Super disappointing... Guess I'll use it for target practice now.

Re: Keg Boiler Fail
The only one I remember that did those was Genesee Cream Ale, but there could have been more. Good luck in the search. A local beer distributor should sell kegs. At least they do here.
If in doubt leave it out.

It was a rhetorical question.

Re: Keg Boiler Fail
Damn, that's a lot of tannerite. The most I have ever done in one shot was a 5 gallon bucket full. I wont be doing that again.
Fear and ridicule are the tactics of weak-minded cowards and tyrants who have no other leadership talent from which to draw in order to persuade.
