It's still a keg and it's still tap beer. Whether they use those or 
not, I don't know.  Amd, it changes nothing.

CO2 and nitrogen can be used.  Plain air spoils the keg quicker.

The place is not the Guinness Only Club, Ward.

Wrong.  It all depends on temperature and delivery system.  Further, I 
stated that the place served only ales and stouts.  You are grasping at 
straws and you grabbed the short one once again.  

My source is the owner and Irishman of a local Irish tavern.  In the 
off-season, a keg was good for sale for a week.  On St Paddy's, he 
often went through as much as 4 kegs on that day.  

And, the place is small, perhaps 40 maximum occupancy.
