A keg will last several weeks and up to 2 years or more depending on the beer style. I homebrew and have a kegerator made out of an old 16 cu ft fridge. IPAs will last 6-8 weeks at least. I have a 12% belgian quad I brewed 3 years ago and it keeps getting better. Pilsners, Lagers, Hefes, Bocks will last at least 6 months and probably longer. Stouts can last a couple of years.

I converted an old refridgerator/freezer into a kegerator with 2 taps. I use a 5lb CO2 tank that I refill 3-4 times a year. I usually keep a 1/6 or 1/4 keg of a light beer and a commercial "craft" beer in my rotation depending on what I feel like drinking at the time. I have never had a beer go flat before I finish the keg. I just floated a keg of purple haze that I have had for over a month and it wasn't flat. I will say that I probably drink more than most, but I don't get sloppy drunk except on occasion. I keep frozen beer mugs in the top freezer. Works great for me and for the number of years I have had it, it has saved me money vs buying canned or bottled beer. I will also say that I probably drink more beer than I would if I buy it by the can/bottle so all in all I call it even.
