how it all started
Think you don’t like beer? Think again.
Keg and Barrel is Mississippi’s premier beer emporium offering over 120 different kinds of beer. With this many beers, there is sure to be one to match everyone’s taste.
​
​
Housed in a late 1800 century home, Keg and Barrel has original wood work, a wrap-around porch and charm that makes it feel like home. It features a tap wall that, for some, just might be considered the 8th wonder of the world. Beer is available everywhere from Germany to Ireland to local Mississippi brews. The extensive tap wall, which often gets mistaken for as decoration, boasts over 60 beers on draught. Top shelf liquor and wine, along with more than 80 whiskeys, are also available for the beer challenged. We pride ourselves in our menu that goes far beyond average bar food. Food selections combine unique pub flair with traditional southern foods. Menu favorites include Fish and Chips, Shrimp and Grits, amazing burgers made with Mississippi grass-feed beef, and our famous chicken and waffles.

What started out as a dream for owner John Neal, has turned into a staple in Hattiesburg dedicated to the consumption and enjoyment of beer.
Whether you are a true beer connoisseur or a novice to the wonderful world of beer we have something to match your taste. This traditionally styled pub offers something for everybody. Our selection of draught beer is unmatched in this area and we welcome you to try them all (preferably not in one sitting).
