FAQs

Is there a delivery fee?

Yes there is a delivery fee, this will be included in your quote. 

I want a keg, what do I need?

Once you have selected your keg, you will require a bar or tapping system to get the beer out of the keg, see our bar hire page. With hire of our systems we provide all the equipment you need including C02 gas and couplers.

 

How long is the hire period?

 

Standard hire period is 2-4 days, our delivery days are Friday/Saturday and collection is on Monday. We will contact you the week of your event to give you a delivery window. Please let us know on booking if you have any time restrictions for delivery. Just let us know on booking if you're after an extended hire period. 

What if I haven't finished my kegs?

 

If you haven't finished your kegs you can hold onto your kegs and use them at a later date. Ensuring these are stored correctly opened kegs can last around a month (dependent on use by date and brand). 

How many pots are in a keg?

 

A standard beer keg contains 50 litres of beer which equates to around 175 pots or roughly 5.5 slabs.

 

How many kegs do I need?

 

Consider how many people are attending the party, how many are beer drinkers, is it a BYO or is there other alcohol supplied, and how long is the event?

 

You may consider:

10-20 people 1 keg 

20-50 people 2 kegs 

50-100 people 2-3 kegs 

>100 people 3-4 kegs 

We're happy to help you work out how many you'll need, just get in touch. 

 

Does the price include the cost of the keg?

Your total price will include the cost of your selected kegs, the cost of your selected bar/tapping system, a delivery fee and a bond (if applicable). 

 

What payment methods are available?

 

We require full payment to be made when we deliver the bar. We accept cash, credit card or direct bank transfer. A deposit is required to secure the booking and final payment 7 days before the event date.

 

Is there a bond?

 

If you are hiring glassware we take a small bond to cover the inevitable breakages,  this is returned after the glasses have been returned and counted.

If you are transporting the equipment we also take a bond. 

 

Do I need ice? If so how much?

 

Ice is only required for the Easy Esky and Timber Esky tapping systems. We will provide you will enough ice to get started, in hot weather this may require 1 bag to top up if your event is over a long time period.

 

Can I hire a bar without kegs?

 

Yes! And at no extra cost!

What is your cancellation policy?

All deposits are non-refundable due to us making your selected bar not available to others for that date. Please refer to our T&C's for more info.
