What Are Draft Beer Wall Taps?
Our wall-mounted beer tap systems are designed to precisely dispense beverages directly from kegs. From bars to restaurants, these systems are highly functional in a variety of commercial spaces. They are space-efficient and ensure every pour is fresh and served at the perfect temperature, enhancing the overall beer experience.
At GS Draft, we take the sustainability and functionality of our commercial draft beer system seriously. Kegs used in these systems are returnable, refillable, and recyclable. They can last up to 30 years, serving up to 27,000 glasses in their lifetime, equating to 1,125 cases of bottles or cans that often end up in landfills. Perhaps more importantly for responsible business owners, draft systems are economically advantageous. With greater operational efficiency and product yield, draft beer offers much higher profit margins than serving from bottles or cans.
Plus, with our draft beer system installation and regular maintenance services, GS Draft ensures your system continues to operate at optimal performance, delivering top-quality beverages every time.

Frequently Asked Questions:
Draft beer systems are designed to store and dispense beer from kegs. They ensure that the beer is served fresh, cold, and at the proper pressure and temperature.
Draft beer systems operate using CO2 or nitrogen gas. These gases maintain the pressure in the kegs as specified by the brewery and push the beer through the lines to the tap, allowing it to be poured into a glass.
Beverage-grade CO2 systems are used for carbonated drinks like beers, ciders, seltzers, sparkling wines, and carbonated kegged cocktails. Beverage-grade nitrogen is used for non-carbonated drinks such as red and white wines, cold brew coffee, and nitro coffees at a higher gas pressure. Nitro stouts use a mix of 25% CO2 and 75% nitrogen.
Yes, you can serve both carbonated and non-carbonated beverages by adjusting the type of gas and pressure levels in the system, depending on the drink.
A standard draft beer system consists of keg couplers, beer and gas tubing, primary and secondary gas regulators, beer FOBs, glycol-cooled insulated trunk lines, a glycol power pack, tap towers with taps and drip trays, along with various stainless steel fittings and clamps.
Maintenance for a draft beer system consists of, but is not limited to, conducting glycol maintenance on your glycol power pack every six months, regular cleaning and sanitizing of beverage lines, replacing vinyl beer lines every 12 to 24 months, routinely disassembling and cleaning taps and keg couplers, inspecting all insulated glycol trunk lines for damage, and breaking down and cleaning beer FOBs every six months.

Regular cleaning of your draft beer system is essential. Draft beer lines should be cleaned every two weeks using a caustic solution, and twice a year with an acid cleaning solution. Maintaining clean equipment helps prevent the growth of bacteria and mold in your cooler. Learn more here.
Draft beer systems provide several benefits, particularly for businesses wanting to elevate the customer experience. A draft beer system makes sure that:
- The ideal temperature is kept for a perfect pour every time.
- A diverse selection of beers is available on tap to suit various tastes.
- Service is optimized and efficient during busy hours.
- Packaging waste is reduced by minimizing the use of bottles and cans.

Yes, draft beer systems can be set up in home bars. There are different system sizes available, from basic kegerators to custom-designed systems, to suit home configurations.
Beer that is well-maintained in a draft system can remain fresh for 30 to 60 days, depending on the beer type and storage conditions.
Draft beer systems are designed to accommodate ⅙ barrel kegs, ¼ barrel kegs, full-sized ½ barrel kegs, and Euro kegs.

Most draft beer problems are linked to temperature, particularly the storage temperatures of kegs and dispense temperatures. Other potential issues may arise from line cleanliness or gas problems. If you're experiencing issues with your draft beer system, please contact us for help.
You should consider upgrading your system if you encounter frequent failures, inconsistent beer quality, or if it no longer meets the volume demands of your business.
The installation cost of a draft beer system depends on its complexity, the number of beer lines, and whether it’s a direct draw system with taps on the cooler wall or a remote long draw system that uses glycol-cooled trunk lines with taps located away from the cooler.
