Copper beer towers and beer fonts for draft beer

A copper beer tower (also called a beer font, tap tower or draft tower) is the centrepiece of any bar. We design and supply custom copper towers with brass fittings for pubs, restaurants, hotels and taprooms across Europe – and can connect them to a properly built draft system behind the counter.

What is a copper beer tower?

A beer tower (UK: beer font) is the vertical or arched column on the bar that carries the taps. Inside it, the beer lines run from the cooler or cold room to the faucets. Copper is the traditional choice (see our range of copper beer towers). It looks warm and premium, develops a natural patina over time, and pairs well with brass fittings, wood and brick interiors.

A tower is only as good as the system behind it. A beautiful font on a poorly cooled or badly balanced line will pour foam. That is why we treat the tower and the draft beer system – cooling, gas, line length, couplers – as one project.

Types of copper tap towers we build and install

Arch / bridge beer towers

A copper bridge beer tower is a horizontal tap bar carried by two copper columns. Ideal for 4–12 taps and for venues where the tower should be the visual focus of the bar.

Straight multi-tap fonts

A multitap beer font is a single horizontal copper tube with numbered or branded badges. Works well on long counters and in multi-tap craft beer bars.

Ceiling-mounted and column towers

Copper tubes that drop from the ceiling or rise from the counter, used in architect-designed interiors where a standard font does not fit.

Custom designs

Tower length, number of taps, brass or chrome details, logo badges and LED-lit medallions – matched to the interior designer's drawings.

Why copper for draft beer towers?

Looks: copper and brass give a craft-brewery, gastropub or classic bar character that stainless steel cannot.
Custom shapes: copper tube is easy to form into arches, bends and long runs, so a tower can follow the bar layout.
Durability: a properly made tower lasts for years of daily service; patina is part of the look.
Pairs with any interior: works with wood, brick, stone and dark industrial finishes.

A beer tower is part of a draft system

For the beer to pour well, the tower must be connected to the right equipment. Our installations include:

Cooling	Under-counter flash coolers, wet and dry loop chillers, long-draw python lines from a cold room	Cold beer at the faucet, less foam
Gas & pressure	CO2 / mixed gas regulators, secondary regulators, line balancing	Correct carbonation and a steady pour
Keg connection	Keg couplers, foam-on-beer detectors, automatic keg changeover	No downtime when a keg runs out

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between a beer tower and a beer font?

They are the same thing. "Beer font" is the common term in the UK, while "beer tower" or "tap tower" is more common in the US and across Europe. Both describe the column on the bar that holds the draft taps.

How many taps can a copper beer tower have?

From a single tap up to a dozen or more, depending on the design. Arch and long horizontal towers are typically used for multi-tap setups; the right number depends on your menu and cooling capacity.

Do you only supply the tower, or the whole draft beer system?

Both. We can supply a tower on its own, but we recommend a complete installation: cooling, gas, lines, couplers and commissioning, so the system pours well from day one.

Can a copper beer tower be made to a custom design?

Yes. Length, number of taps, shape, brass details and branded or LED-lit badges can be matched to your interior designer's drawings.

Do you serve customers outside Poland?

Yes. We serve bars, pubs, restaurants and hotels across Europe. Send us your country, the number of taps and a rough plan of the bar, and we will propose a suitable tower and next steps.
