Are dirty lines ruining your beer?

Your taps could be pouring the greatest beer known to mankind, but dirty lines will ruin even the best of brews! 

Proper care and maintenance of your draft beer system is essential to preserving your beer's quality. Unlike bottled beer, most keg draft beers brewed in the U.S.  are not pasteurized. Yeast, beerstone, mold and bacteria build up in your beer lines requiring regular and proper cleanings. Beer distributed through dirty lines will pick up contaminants, effecting taste, odor and overall quality. If your beer lines haven't been had a good cleaning lately - think of what your beer is traveling through before it reaches your glass ... And eventually your lips!

Properly maintained beer lines will prolong the lifespan of your beer system and ensure you're serving quality brew.

Call us today to schedule your cleaning!

The strongest beer in the world

Snake Venom - The world's strongest beer

Just one sip of Brewmeister's Snake Venom brew could have you seeing stars. Clocking in at nearly 136 proof (68% ABV) , this Swedish Craft brewery's beer is the strongest beer in the world. For comparison, most whiskeys are 80-90 proof. 

The beer is made from smoked peat malt, both beer and champagne yeasts and freeze concentrated to secure its alcohol content. 

The brewery's director warns against drinking a bottle all in one go and said the beer is meant to be savored in small doses. 

We'd love to give it a try and it looks like the brewery may start distribution in the States soon.

Whats the strongest beer you've had?
