    Hey Greg,

    I got mine from Austin Homebrew about a year or 2 ago. They were $5-10 depending on how many they had in the alley. Aquatek may have made a deal to buy them though and the cheap ones may be gone. Also, check with the Coca-Cola bottling company. They get their syrups in those too.

    Ah, but still helpful. I hadn't seen the link to Dave the barrel guy before, but I like the selection. I've been looking for some smaller (30 gal) barrels and the next time I go through SA, I will be stopping to see him. Thanks for your link.
