If the links are within a nested list, I don't think it's such a
hardship, screen readers (and visually without CSS) you can skip the
sub-lists that don't interest you.

I'm not a fan of drop-down menus for general usability reasons, but a
standard (suckerfish style) drop down list is technically accessible in
web terms, but tricky motor-skill wise.

The brothercake one is keyboard accessible, and even puts in a slight
delay like an OS drop-down (which Terrence mentioned), I'm not sure you
can fault it on accessibility grounds. 

It's just something of a usability/IA issue when there are too many
items, which is an issue for everyone.

Kind regards,
