How long does the beer last in these things?

Theoretically if it stays under pressure and cold, it lasts as long as it would in a bottle. I think realistically after a month it may get a bit skunky but still drinkable.

I have had beer last well over a month. The reason CO2 is used is that is doesn't allow the further oxidation that makes the beer go bad.

You still need a CO2 regulator.

If you have to ask you aren't drinking it quick enough. I lived in a college house with 8 other guys so there was never beer in it beyond 1 week. By the end of the week it was a tad skunky, but our kegerator had CO2 issues.

I played beer pong with like 2-3 week old keg beer and it was the worst [censored] I've ever tasted. It smelled awful and tasted like terrible wine.

That was after my 2nd or 3rd cup.

Must have been a bad keg. A buddy of mine had a kegerator and stocked it with Natty light, and we'd drink off that keg for a month. Either the lines were bad (mold and bacteria), or somebody left the keg out in the sun and it got too hot.
