How BetterBeer.com Helps
Draught Quality Assessments
Why do you need monthly checks if you have a draught service company?
- Draught Service companies clean and service lines (we do not).
- They are reactive, meaning that they fix broken equipment when it breaks.
- They don't proactively check your system to find potential issues BEFORE they happen.
- They don't check temperatures, date codes, proper rotation, beer glass cleanliness, or signs that your staff are doing what they should do.
- And they certainly don't tell you that they missed a thing or two when cleaning your system.
This is where we help you where others can't.
What do we check?
- Line cleaning frequency and quality.
- Date codes on kegs to ensure proper rotation and freshness.
- Temperatures of walk-in and beer from the tap from each trunk line.
- Over twenty quality checks per line.
- Condition of the towers, lines, couplers, faucets, and FOBs.
- Plus much more
Dirty Beer Glasses
The biggest issue in the industry. They cause:
- lower re-order rates,
- flat-looking pints,
- over-pours,
- returned/comped pints.
Use our Beer Glass Cleaning Kit once per week to supplement your current glass cleaning.
In only 20 minutes per week, you can make a massive improvement in your draught quality.
Here is a video on how to tell if your glasses are clean, what causes them to be dirty, and how to fix it.
Draught Quality Training
Online, trackable, and informative.
Two levels of courses: Serve Better Beer for anyone who handles anything draught related.
- How the system works – what are regulators, couplers, faucets, and FOBs.
- Proper storage and receiving of kegs – which kegs should you store upside down?
- How to change a keg without getting a beer shower.
- Proper pour – You’ve told them to put a head on the beer, but we tell them why.
- Beer clean glasses – when your staff understand what Beer Clean Glasses are, you make more money.
- Branded glasses – yup, they’re a pain, but they also make your life much easier, and you make more by using them.
- Using FOBs – not knowing how to use a FOB properly will waste $6 of beer at EVERY keg change.
- Troubleshooting – the system only breaks down on busy nights it seems. Wouldn’t it be great if you could solve some problems on your own and get back to selling pints?
- And…how to sell more beer.
Advancing Better Beer for Keyholders/Managers. More technical with a greater focus on troubleshooting.
- Beer gas - cylinders vs blender.
- Understanding Line cleaning - what should be done each month.
- Glass rinsers - how they work
- Jumping kegs - why you shouldn't.
- Line Chillers - how to troubleshoot warm beer.
- Trunk lines - often neglected.
- Plus much more...
Both courses are about 70 min each.
Beer Line Cleaning Tracking

Know when your lines were last cleaned, which type of clean (there are two types), and who cleaned them.

Which Program Is Right For You?
I get it - looking at five different pricing tiers can feel overwhelming. Let me break this down so you can pick the right fit for your operation.
But first, the numbers you need to know: Our clients save an average of $11,352 annually, and 61% report increased profitability after working with us. See the full survey results. Even our most comprehensive program pays for itself in savings - and that's before you factor in increased sales and happier guests.
Here's how to think about it:
Every program includes your Beer Glass Cleaning Kit and unlimited training for your entire staff. That's the foundation. The real question is: how much ongoing support and accountability do you need to keep your draught system running at peak performance?
Start with Kit & Courses ($675) if you're in a remote location or you've already got draught quality locked down. You'll get all the tools and training to maintain high standards on your own. For less than $60/month, this pays for itself if you eliminate just one pint of spillage per day.
Add the Deep Dive ($840) when you want us to come in once, conduct a comprehensive assessment of your entire system, and give you a detailed roadmap. Perfect if you're confident you can execute the improvements yourself, but want expert eyes on your operation first. Most clients find multiple issues costing them hundreds per month that they didn't even know existed.
Go Quarterly ($1,335) for low to medium volume locations. You get that initial Deep Dive, plus I'm back every three months to catch issues before they become expensive problems. At $111/month, this keeps you honest and your standards high without breaking the bank. Our clients report reducing waste by 77% on average.
Choose Bi-Monthly ($1,665) when you're doing medium to high volume and can't afford to let quality slip. With visits every other month, we're staying ahead of problems and protecting your profit margins consistently. That's $139/month for the peace of mind that comes with 84% of clients seeing measurable quality improvements.
Pick Monthly ($2,655) for high-volume operations where draught beer is a significant revenue driver. Monthly visits mean maximum accountability, immediate course corrections, and the best possible beer quality year-round. When 23% of our clients report increased profit margins and 16% see draught sales growth, investing $220/month becomes an easy decision.
The bottom line: More frequent visits mean tighter quality control, faster problem resolution, and better beer consistency. Choose the frequency that matches your volume, your team's capabilities, and how much money you're leaving on the table with spillage and service issues.
Why our clients stick with us: 94% would recommend us to other bar owners, and 89% stay with us for 12+ months because the results are measurable and the ROI is clear.
Not sure which fits? Let's talk. I managed bars for twelve years and then I owned a draught service company for six years - I know exactly what you're dealing with, and I know what it takes to get draught quality right.

What would you say to someone who was on the fence about the Better Beer Program?
When I was a GM, my draught spillage was 10% on a good week. Nobody could help me fix it. The service tech would shrug and say "it's just the way your system is designed, Steve."
I remember busy Friday nights when our system would crash and we'd have to 86 draught for the rest of the night. My staff looked to me to fix it because I was the GM and I should know how. But I didn't. I felt embarrassed, angry, and wanted to quit.
After I left the restaurant business, I got obsessed with figuring out draught systems. In 2005, I started a draught service company. I ran it for six years, serviced many of Ontario's best-known chains and independents each month, and eventually sold it to a competitor.
That's why I started Better Beer in 2009. Because I'd seen the problem from every angle—as a frustrated GM, as a service company owner, and as someone who knew exactly how many bars were struggling with the same issues I'd faced.
Book a 20-minute demo with me. We'll talk about your system, your challenges, and how much money you're losing. I'll customize a Better Beer package specifically for your situation. No pressure, just an honest conversation about whether we're a fit.
