Heineken Energy-Saving Beer Tapper

Apr-22-14 Heineken has unveiled an innovative and simple new draft beer-dispensing design that uses less energy while also reducing greenhouse emissions.

According to the company, the David XL Green draft system will consume 50 percent less energy than current systems and will keep the tapped beer fresh for one month. The increase in efficiency and freshness-capabilities are all due to a simple change—moving the keg closer to the tap.

The chill unit and kegs of the David XL Green system are placed beneath the counter and the serving tap, significantly reducing the length of tubing usually required to draw a beer from the keg to the tap. This reduction in tubing means the keg does not have to be as chilled as usual. Additionally, the lines are disposable, so they are not at as much of a risk of contamination due to improper cleaning.
