Choosing the right beer tower
When designing or upgrading your bar, one of the most visually striking and operationally important decisions you'll make is choosing the right beer dispensing tower. Not only is the tower the focal point of your serving area, but it's also critical for maintaining product quality and efficiency. Whether you're running a high-volume taproom or a small cocktail-focused venue, your beer tower should match both your aesthetic and your operational needs.
At Liquid Cheers, we offer a wide selection of beer dispensing towers that cater to every type of bar setup that work with your budget. With a variety of styles, tap configurations, and customizable features, you'll find the perfect tower to enhance your beverage program and impress your guests.

Box Towers
The 3" and 4" box style beer dispensing towers are classics in the industry for good reason. Their straightforward, durable design has stood the test of time, making them a go-to choice for bars, restaurants, and event venues. These towers are not only reliable but also among the most economical options available, offering great value without sacrificing performance.
Versatility Beyond Beer
What truly sets Liquid Cheers beer towers apart is their incredible versatility. Every tower is fitted with 304 stainless steel beverage lines, the industry standard for hygiene and longevity. This type of stainless steel ensures that your beverage lines are resistant to corrosion and easy to clean.
Because we use 304SS lines across the board, you're not limited to dispensing just beer. These towers are perfect for wine, water, batch cocktails, and even nitro coffee. With this multi-use capability, you can diversify your drink menu without needing separate equipment for each type of beverage. That makes our towers a smart investment for bars, restaurants, coffee shops, and event venues looking to streamline operations while offering variety.
Custom Powder Coated Finishes That Stand Out
Functionality is critical, but aesthetics matter too. Your beer tower can be more than just a utility; it can be a design statement. At Liquid Cheers, we offer the option to powder coat your tower in virtually any color for a small upcharge.
This means your beer tower can be customized to match your brand colors, decor, or theme. Want a matte black finish for an industrial vibe? A bold red to match your restaurant's logo? Or a clean white to blend with a minimalist counter? It's all possible.
Powder coating not only enhances appearance but also provides additional durability against wear and tear, making your investment last even longer.
Choosing the Right Cooling Method: Glycol vs. Air Cooled
Another key consideration when selecting your beer dispensing tower is the type of cooling system you'll need. The two primary options are glycol cooled and air cooled systems. Each is designed for a specific type of bar setup:
Glycol-Cooled Towers
Glycol cooling is ideal for long-draw systems, where your kegs are stored remotely in a walk-in cooler or keg room. In this setup, a glycol chiller circulates a cold glycol solution through lines that run alongside your beverage lines, keeping the beer cold all the way from keg to faucet.
Best for: Large bars, breweries, or restaurants with long runs between the keg and tap
Pros: Consistent temperature control, supports multiple towers or high volume systems
Air-Cooled Towers
Air-cooled systems are better suited for short-draw setups like keg boxes or kegerators, where the tower is mounted directly on top of the keg cooler.
Best for: Smaller bars, mobile bars, or home installations
Pros: Simpler setup, cost-effective, easy to maintain
Our selection includes both glycol-cooled and air-cooled towers, so no matter your space or system requirements, we have a solution that fits.
Tips for Choosing the Right Tower
When narrowing down your options, consider these factors:
- Volume of service: Higher volume venues will benefit from towers with more taps and glycol cooling. Lower volume or specialty-focused bars may need just 1–4 taps.
- Beverage diversity: If you're planning to offer beer plus cocktails, wine, or coffee, choose a tower with enough tap lines and 304SS to handle it all.
- Bar design: Think about whether your space is best suited to a wall-mounted option, a low-profile tower, or a statement piece.
- Branding and aesthetics: Don’t overlook the visual element. Powder coating can elevate the design of your bar and reinforce your brand.
- System type: Determine whether your bar setup needs a glycol or air cooled tower based on your keg location and draw length.
