I got one of these yesterday 2.6 gallon size. I traded a tall 1/4 barrel (that I rarely used) to a brewpub that had a couple these. It is a sanke fitting but I already have the coupler. The website says that there is a special tool to remove the spear, but I was told by the brewer that they just unscrew. The keg came full so I have not been able to see how easy it will be to open and clean. The is a production brewery hear that uses plastic kegs exculsively and he really likes them. (the keg I have is actually from this brewery, he traded some pins to the brewpub for some of the plastic 1/12 barrel). He also comfirmed that you can unscrew them without the special tool.I assume that I will be using this for remote traveling rather than normal home use, but it does fit in the serving chest freezer on the compressor hump so I could use it at home and will get it hooked up sometime this week.
