Below is a table that details the dimensions and volume that each of our mini kegs and growlers can hold. It also includes the height of each of the taps as well as the max volume allowed when using Nitro.
Please ensure you consider the height of both the vessel and tap. However the taps can be removed at any time to allow you to store the keg lying down (or standing if you have room) This will leave the keg with a spear (6cm) on it (this has the valves that the tap connects to).

Mini Keg Spear - Gas and Liquid Ball Lock Posts and 75psi Pressure Release Valve.
Includes a flexible silicon dip tube (cut it to the height of your keg)
Includes a spear tool for use with all the nuts on the spear.
All stainless steel construction
Has a ball lock post for the liquid and gas for easy connection and disconnection of the tap and regulator.
Has a 75psi overpressure release valve with automatic and manual operation.
Can be used with any of the tap options and any of the gas system options.
Uses flexible beer line for a dip tube (can be used lying down)
Has valves in both posts so tap and gas can be removed without losing pressure or spilling beer.
Same connections as the 19L corny keg so can be joined together in a daisy chain or do keg-keg transfers.
Use to counter-pressure fill from kegs and force carbonating homebrew, the most versatile spear by far.
