Id say you and da bum should get a room.... but they'd need a repair contractor on speed dial..
Avoid KEGS – The Brewery Stock That's All Foam, No Beer
Thinking of buying KEGS? Here's your wake-up call.
1812 Brewing Company Inc. (KEGS) is the definition of a penny stock death trap. Tiny market cap? Try ~$65K — barely enough to buy a used food truck. The company operates on razor-thin margins, sporadically profitable only on paper, with no real scale or trajectory.
They’ve had a couple quarters of minor profit, but let’s not kid ourselves — the entire annual revenue is under $2 million, and the net income barely cracked $130K. That’s less than what some brewery managers make. Add in a 12% borrow fee and a ballooning short interest, and you’ve got a strong scent of insiders and shorts taking advantage of low-float sucker rallies.
Their press releases read more like a craft beer blog than a business plan — bragging about canning machines and local restaurant licenses like it's 2010. Meanwhile, there's no growth plan, no real institutional interest, and zero analyst coverage. You won’t find this one on anyone’s serious radar unless they’re trading it for volume scalps.
Let’s talk dilution: this is a share printing press. Reverse splits, share authorizations, insider deals — it's all been on the table. Want a list of red flags? How about:
No meaningful institutional backing
No dividends
Micro-cap liquidity trap
Wild price volatility
Long-term downtrend
OTC status with no uplisting path in sight
If you’re hoping for a squeeze, prepare to be the squeezed. This isn’t a turnaround play — it’s a hobby business masquerading as a public company. There are thousands of real companies with revenue, products, and leadership worth betting on. KEGS just isn’t one of them.
Save your money — or better yet, invest in beer, not a beer stock that’s been flatlining for years.

Making Texas look good one post at a time. Lol
Losing money is obviously your favorite - LOL. Go buy some KEGS beer so you can celebrate your losses.
Red flags on the OTC? I recommend you don’t trade OTC stocks if red flags are your concern. Trying to simplify your life. Go play golf or pickleball. This game isn’t for you.
Yeah, i am not trying to help him, this is just entertainment. Most OTC players don't know how to do DD or spot red flags.
$25.00 plus commissions? You can’t be serious?
Saving the world. lmao!
Don’t waste your time trying to help BeachBum or RMS555 — they’re buried so deep in the red they’ll never see breakeven. This company has been a scam from the start, loaded with red flags anyone doing even basic due diligence could’ve seen. They chose to ignore them, so the losses they’re facing are well deserved.
Notice how many bashers show up when there is a new buyer of KEGS? I call them the fool force! I am placing a small buy of 4,749 shares off the ask right now, no bid sitting for me! (edit: got filled lower, there will be another buy right now. 395 share buy coming right now!)

You must be new to this stock. I have been following it for years. They make their money selling shares, the beer is a front.
Shedding a tear. I’m a big boy, thanks! 😊
Spot on, Mister!!
I had this guy all wrong. Which is rare.
It's the truth. None of the proceeds from any beer sales or restaurants go towards the KEGS SCAM debt.
I'm surprised you are supporting this fraudulent garbage stock.
I've lost all respect for you.
That’s as dumb as the pump posts from RMS. Lmao!
KEGS sells shares not beer
Or, and hear me out, your buddy rms pissed off a LOT of people
If you weren’t interested in KEGS, you wouldn’t be parked here bashing it. 11.7 unrestricted. Easy math for a third grader.
Your post is full of baseless speculation and misinterpretations of how markets actually work.
There is no such thing as a “GTSM signal” at .006. GTSM was the Government Securities Trading System, but in the context of OTC stocks like KEGS, this is likely a misuse or misunderstanding of terminology. Market makers don’t use secret “signals” like this — it’s fiction.
Market Makers (MMs) are not “short as F*.”** Market makers facilitate liquidity and typically hedge positions to remain neutral. They don’t take massive directional bets on penny stocks like KEGS. They profit from the bid-ask spread, not from secretly shorting sub-penny stocks into oblivion.
No evidence of a breakout to .05+. KEGS would need substantial volume, news, fundamental value, or catalysts to even approach that level. A “peep” from a company with a long history of dilution, failed business models, and reverse splits does not automatically lead to a 700% price spike.
"Held at DTC 11,508,981 on 07/15/2025"
This number refers to shares held at the Depository Trust Company, not the total float or tradable supply. It does not mean only 11 million shares exist or are tradable. KEGS has had a history of billions of shares outstanding — DTC simply reflects a portion held in street name, not the full story.
The “100–500” codes are nonsense.
Those “MM signals” are a debunked urban legend from old stock boards — there is no such SEC or FINRA-recognized code system used in live trading. Real-time market makers and brokers do not send secret coded messages to one another through Level 2 or tape. This is pure conspiracy theory from outdated pump-and-dump playbooks.
Your entire post relies on misinformation and fantasy thinking. The idea that KEGS — a serially diluted, fundamentally weak OTC stock — is being “suppressed” by shadowy MM signals or is primed to run to .05 with no legitimate catalyst is pure hopium. Investors should focus on facts, filings, and fundamentals, not conspiracy theories recycled from decade-old message boards.
GTSM signal .006. A peep from KEGS and this runs to .05+. MM’s are short as F*** sub .01 imo.

100 – I need shares.
200 – I need to unload shares.
300 – Take the stock down to get shares.
400 – Keep sideways
500 – Gap the stock up
Yawn.
One, the volume is sporadic and pathetically tiny some days.
Two, get some new material.
Three. Trade real companies. Thinking you're not so dumb that you only play pinkie schitt
Name 3 bulls other than you and beachy.
I forgot nothing. I don't see much activity on the kegs boards at stocktwits or yahoo or x or Facebook.
Are you aware of a board, page, group, etc that is actually bullish on kegs? Because I'm not.
You seem to have forgotten that iHub doesnt control investors accounts nor the stock market. Not everyone that is buying comes to iHub to say they bought KEGS...... There are plenty of buyers of KEGS because of These Recent & Easily Verifiable Facts:
KEGS was profitable in the 2nd, 3rd & 4th Quarter of 2024.
KEGS has verifiable assets, 4 properties in New York..

Complete BS. I’m a small buyer lately and the pumper buys occasionally. We’re not alone. Don’t buy, I don’t give a shit.
Have you wondered why seemingly nobody else wants to hop in on this sure thing? If the market saw some possibility of a run you'd have a lot of company.
But the only bulls here are you and the honorable RMStitanic.
That would be swell.
Interesting bed fellows lately.
Anything for a buck, I guess.
I'm with THall. He's spot on about those 100m shares that absolutely never went for the price which was published... if at all, it was 1/10th
Whydafuq the pea-brained resident idjat includes that nonsense in his lame arse daily copy/paste is beyond me.
Good luck with your quest at making some coin here. I doubt it will ever amount to more than a few crusty shekels...
Maybe try some real stocks. I first got RKLB at 11.18. It touched over 45 today a time or three!! Whee.. And may yet hit 300 in a few years. I have a lot, but many folks have 10k shares or more
You don’t speak for the board and why are you so worried about me? Afraid we may make a few bucks?
Once again you’ve proven to this board that you’ve done zero due diligence and have absolutely no understanding of how this CEO operates. Rest assured, those 100 million freshly minted shares either went straight to Seaway Valley or to some contractor — and they’ll all end up right back with this scammer CEO.
Instead of pumping this worthless fraud, try doing some actual research for once. Stop trying to trap clueless new bagholders in this train wreck.
100 million shares was worth $10 mil pre split non discounted .0001. I agree, not an acquisition. They will have to report this transaction and list the recipient. I’m sure it’s something they planned through the reverse. Interesting the shares are all restricted which would lead me to believe they are performance/date/event contingent. Float unchanged at 11.5 mil which is nothing.
100 million Restricted Shares for a restaurant/bar is WAY TOO MANY SHARES! Unless KEGS is buying a restaurant/bar that is worth well over $100 million dollars that is way too many shares for a measly restaurant/bar.
I am hoping that those shares went to the note holders that KEGS owes approximately $14 million to. That would make more sense! We will know in about a month, unless there is a PR about it.
Nothing has changed the Facts about KEGS as being profitable! Nothing has changed the Fact that the War of 1812 Amber Ale is GOOD BEER! I bought more shares yesterday and may buy more on Thursday.
In the meantime: I will let time tell the truth for the shareholders of KEGS!
Good Luck to All Good People Here!
Lets Go KEGS! More Good News!

I’m guessing KEGS just acquired another restaurant through a restricted share exchange. Could also be a reverse merger deal. None of this could have happened without the reverse split allowing for the restricted agreement. Float has not changed so this pps is rediculously low. If they PR, KEGS will go to .05+ in minutes.
Bought some today. Looks to be thinning out for a run.
You’re safe, not to worry.
RINSE AND REPEAT,RINSE AND REPEAT.
Could be, sure! Acquisition, expansion etc. would make sense issuing 100 mil shares post split to buy another restaurant or expand the copacking where I think there’s huge revenue opportunity. Disclosure on where the 100 mil went better come soon. Hiding that from shareholders will not be received well.
Fact: Restricted Shares that were just issued can be a good thing! I got some more shares of KEGS today and waiting for a different ticker to sell so I can buy a little more KEGS off the ask!
The volume today is NOT FROM DILUTION.

Issuing 100 mil restricted shares is a material event. I’m guessing a PR is coming. If it happens, there’s only 11.5 mil floating. Just math.
Wow, you really showed them
Fact….KEGS just issued 100 mil restricted shares DTC unchanged at 11.5 mil. Do some digging and revise your post accordingly.
You have great time management skills. PR coming on recent issuance of restricted shares imo.

NOTE: The FINRA Daily Short Report does NOT represent naked shorts! Boards where it is used to try to trick inexperienced investors signal a SERIOUS RED FLAG! Read FINRA's own explanation below
https://www.finra.org/investors/insights/short-interest
What Short Interest Is Not
In addition to short interest data, FINRA also publishes short sale volume data. The daily short sale volume data provides aggregated volume by security for all off-exchange short sale trades. This data excludes any trading activity that is not publicly disseminated and is not consolidated with exchange data.
Some market participants mistakenly conclude that the bimonthly short interest data is understated because the Short Sale Volume Daily File reflects volume that is much larger than the positions reported as short interest. However, short interest position data does not—and is not intended to—equate to the daily short sale volume data posted on FINRA’s website.
The short interest data is just a snapshot that reflects short positions held by brokerage firms at a specific moment in time on two discrete days each month. The Short Sale Volume Daily File reflects the aggregate volume of trades within certain parameters executed as short sales on individual trade dates. Therefore, while the two data sets are related in that short sale volume activity may ultimately result in a reportable short interest position, they are not the same.
