When you rent our tap trailers, we want to make your event great.  Accordingly, we are happy to assist in any way – but there are some important considerations you need to make before completing your reservation.  Do you know how to operate beer equipment and tap kegs, or do you need our help? No matter what, we will deliver the trailer, place it where you direct us and make sure beer is flowing perfectly before we turn over the keys to you.  

Cancellation

We cannot cancel any reservation with notice less than 7 days before your event date (because we have already bought the beer).  You may cancel anytime if you purchase all the beer we have already bought on your behalf.

Legal stuff

Per the terms of our rental agreement, any damage to our equipment is your responsibility. In addition to repair and replacement costs, we can incur lost revenue from missed rentals when is inoperable.  If we have reservations in our system that we cannot satisfy because the equipment has been damaged at your event, we reserve the right to assess you for an amount equal to the lost fees, including sales on beer for that event.  A rental agreement will be emailed to you.

About Beer Foam

Be forewarned, beer is a finicky substance.  In addition to a delicious beverage, beer is a living breathing biology experiment – albeit a very controlled one.  But, of course, it can become unruly at times… Its willingness to pour well depends on many factors, among them, beer style, temperature, recent keg disturbance (motion), and most importantly, CO2 pressure inside the keg. In general, you should be getting smooth pours if the keg is below 45 degrees F, the keg has been stationary for at least 30 minutes, and your keg pressure is set between 8 and 12 PSI. If those conditions are met, beer should flow at an adequate rate without excess foam.  

But keep in mind, A properly poured beer should have at least a half to one inch of foam if not more.  Therefore, you cannot get any beer to flow without foam – No matter what, you will have some foam in your beer, and that is a good thing.
