Tapster
The story of Tapster began in England in the early 1600s, when the Tapster nickname was born to reference a bartender serving alcoholic drinks—mostly beer—from a large, barreled tap. Tapsters always served the best beer, drawing people from near and far to visit and enjoy catching up with friends, families, and neighbors alike.
While the nickname eventually died out, Tapster has been revitalized into a modern, tasting room franchise that allows every guest—over the age of 21, of course—to be a Tapster.
The days of waiting 15-plus minutes for a drink are over. Tapster Tasting Rooms puts guests in control of the experience – allowing them the freedom to get their drinks when they want and try as many varieties as they’d like.
With Tapster cards in hand and a tap wall packed with over 40 options of beer, wine, cocktails and non-alcoholic beverages, Tapsters are in the driver’s seat. They drink at their own pace and are welcome to hang out as long as they want in the comfortable, communal space that encourages sampling the various, frequently changing beverages on tap. The combination of the ever-changing beer options and low-stress, relaxed environment sees new Tapsters turning into regulars and returning often to try what’s new.
Unlike traditional bar and restaurant establishments burdened with complex staffing and food service requirements, Tapster’’s self-pour technology and proven operational systems minimize the need for extensive staffing, meanwhile, allowing our franchise partners and their team to focus on delivering exceptional guest experiences.
