Beer tap

A beer tap is a device used to pour beer from a large stored container, called a kegerator or keg, into a glass. It consists of a handle or lever connected to a valve that controls the flow of beer. When you pull the handle, it opens the valve, allowing beer to flow out through a spout. The tap often includes mechanisms to maintain pressure and keep the beer fresh, typically utilizing carbon dioxide to push the beer from the keg to the serving glass. It ensures a steady, controlled pour and maintains the quality of the beer.
