Paulaner, a renowned brewery known for its exceptional beers, uses the A-Type keg tap for their kegs. This keg tap is also commonly referred to as a keg coupler, keg tap, coupling, or adapter.

The A-Type keg tap is specifically designed to fit Paulaner kegs and provides a secure connection between the keg and the dispensing system. It ensures a smooth flow of beer from the keg to the tap, allowing beer enthusiasts to enjoy the rich flavors and aromas that Paulaner beers are known for.

When it comes to the specific dimensions of the A-Type keg tap, it is important to note that both barbs measure 3/16″ ID (inner diameter) and 1/4″ OD (outer diameter). These measurements are crucial for ensuring a proper fit and preventing any leakage or loss of carbonation.

Having personally used the A-Type keg tap for Paulaner kegs, I can attest to its reliability and ease of use. The tap is equipped with a handle that allows for easy operation and control of the beer flow. It also features a pressure relief valve, which helps release excess pressure from the keg before tapping, ensuring a safe and efficient dispensing process.

One of the advantages of using the A-Type keg tap is its compatibility with various beer dispensing systems. Whether you are using a commercial setup at a bar or a home draft system, the A-Type keg tap can be easily connected and integrated into the system, providing a seamless beer pouring experience.
