SERVICES: Draft Beer System, Gas Blender, Draft Beer Monitoring System, Barrel Head Addition
With their 4th taproom location in Santa Monica, The Dude’s Brewing Company enlisted Draft Beer Intelligence to install twenty-seven (27) draft beer lines and four (4) draft wine lines. The tight construction schedule required us to complete the installation in 48 hours.
This draft beer system included a monitoring system from our partners at iDraught. The monitoring system precisely measures product flow through the draft beer lines and integrates with the POS system to track sales and provide actionable data.
When you add barrel-aged beers to your draft menu, there’s only one logical way to pour them. DBI installed three (3) draft lines to the draft system dedicated to their barrel-aged beer program. This installation included iDraught flow meters and a unique barrel head at the bar wall.
A custom shadow box installation at the walk-in cooler wall ensures proper cold transfer to the beer faucet.
iDraught intelligent flow meters were installed on each draft beer line to measure product usage.
Los Angeles County’s Health Department did not immediately accept a walk-in cooler built of previously used panels. However, a letter from Draft Beer Intelligence assisted the general contractor in passing inspections and meeting the opening date. See the edited version of the confidential letter here.
We installed standard stainless steel beer faucets because, when properly maintained, they can last a lifetime. The 1-3 year life span of chrome-plated faucets made of lesser materials does not fit the Draft Beer Intelligence mission.
