High-yield draft beverage systems

The Proper Pour Advantage is Glastender’s proven process for designing and delivering high-yield remote draft systems that perform flawlessly—from the first pour to the last. Backed by more than 30 years of experience, Glastender understands that exceptional draft beverages don’t happen by chance. They’re the result of precision engineering, expert coordination, and a deep understanding of both the beverage menu and the site layout.

From design to dispense

The Proper Pour Advantage is built on three essential factors—a collaborative approach, fresh as the brewer intended, and high-yield performance. From initial design through final dispense, every step is engineered, verified, and coordinated to deliver better tasting draft with less down the drain.

  • From design to dispense: Menu, site, system design, installation, and post-install verification are fully aligned.
  • Verified performance: Systems are confirmed to pour exactly as intended, not assumed.
  • End-user empowerment: Operators gain confidence, consistency, and long-term value.

Fresh as the brewer intended

Towers dispense beverages stored in kegs and feature glycol-cooled components to ensure optimal dispensing quality. As the only visible element of a remote draft beverage system, towers serve as the focal point for the entire draft experience—where performance meets presentation.

  • All stainless-steel beverage contact ensures beer, wine, coffee, and cocktails are dispensed without loss of flavor or quality.
  • Glycol-chilled shank and faucet technology significantly reduces warm spots at the point of dispense for consistently fresh pours.
  • Precise temperature stability supports proper carbonation and balanced mouthfeel from first pour to last.
  • Maintains aroma integrity by minimizing temperature fluctuation and excess CO₂ breakout at the faucet.
  • Engineered to deliver consistent, high-quality pours that protect flavor, freshness, and yield.

Draft towers

The draft tower is the centerpiece of every pour, where performance meets presentation, and the final touch in delivering the Proper Pour. It is often the first thing guests see when their beverage is served, making it both a visual focal point and a critical part of the draft experience.

Whether classic or contemporary, every Glastender draft tower is built with the same promise to deliver the perfect pour, every time.

Powder coat vs paint

Powder coating is a performance finish that enhances durability, consistency, and visual impact for draft towers in high-traffic environments. It is available in hundreds of standard and custom colors (RAL number required where applicable).

Using a dry resin-based powder with pigment, it is applied electrostatically to metal. The coated part is then cured in an oven (typically around 400°F), where the powder melts and chemically bonds to the surface, forming a hard, uniform finish.

  • Built to last in high-traffic, high-touch bar environments.
  • Thicker, tougher finish that resists chips and scratches.
  • Consistent appearance over time—less wear, fewer touch-ups.
