Mike Weiss has done a splendid job of building the club bar to take to the NHC. This is the bar we voted to spend club monies to build and Mike was able to get many of the bar materials donated.

I forgot to put the dimensions. The bar is about 4' long and 14" tall. The top lifts off, the shank bank (I love that term) slides out, the sides fold in and the drip tray is removable. So it all breaks down into  a neat little package.

Thanks to Brian Sico for helping brainstorm the design. Mike took some back of the napkin scribble we dreamed up and made a beautiful piece.


The hoses and disconnects are not yet in place but it will have 6 flare swivels on the end of 5' long dispensing hoses. The club also has 6 ball lock beer disconnects (mfl), 2 pin lock beer disconnects (mfl), and two tailpiece to flare conversions if we need to hook up commercial kegs. The club purchased a German Slider tap long ago, but we may want to think about purchasing a standard Sankey tap at some point.
