Explanation:
Diría yo.

¿O "una ración triple de cerveza"? (Lo de "ración", la verdad es que no..., mejor "una ronda triple de cerveza de barril"...)

Algo más de contexto a lo mejor ayudaría...

Saludos cordiales.

Según esto, podría ser tal vez..., ¿de tres barriles de cerveza?

http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=kegger

Aunque creo que es simplemente una hipérbole expresiva... o sea, que bebí como un cosaco... aunque los cosacos beban vodka, claro.

Saludos una vez más.

neutral  David Hollywood: think it's more to do with the quantity of beer they put up for the party and not so much with individual consumption

  -> Yup, it seems just an hyperbolic usage..., in my view. :-) Thank you, David.

A wild party where beer is served (usually in disposable plastic cups) from a keg. Keggers are usually associated with high school and college students, but anybody can throw one if they've got a lot of friends and at least one keg of beer.
