As I mentioned in a previous post, I cleaned my kegerator lines last night and, inadvertantly, my entire keg fridge. It’s odd how, as you grow more rings around your trunk, you come to truly relish and enjoy the simpler things in life. I love the time I get to spend with my kegerator, disassembling and cleaning, tuning and upgrading. It brings me closer to my beer and makes my degenerative alcoholism seem far more productive than it otherwise would.

As I was letting the BLCsit in my lines last night, I decided it was time to change out my tap handles. Baseball season is over (for the Cubs) so it’s time to take down my baseball tap handle and I feel I’ve given my Obama tap handle (sorry these are sold out) more than ample time on it’s premiere stage. I’m holding out for health care reform to pass before giving him the auspicious throne atop my kegerator again (although, HEY! Congrats on the Nobel Peace Prize Barry!).

So, to replace at least one of my two tap handles I made purchase of the She-Devil tap handle from kegworks (Apparently, I got their last one as it now shows that it is out of stock, I’ve posted a link to another site that carries it, although it is a few dollars more expensive). I have had my eye on this vicious little demon tramp for quite some time now and thought “what better time than the Halloween season to collect this novelty beer tap handle.” I love Halloween novelties and treats, especially when they help me drink.

One thing I did notice while combing the internet for a novelty tap handle that suited my fairly specific profile of classy-yet-kitschy-without-being-cliched is that there really aren’t too many great novelty beer tap handles available out there. I think I’m going to put our metal-smithing friends over at the League of Troubled Souls to work making some sweetly evil tap handles to fill this achey breaky void.

If you know of any great novelty tap handles or have some suggestions for the LTS custom jobs post them in the comments.
