Coffee Shop use case

    Non-Alcoholic Kegs for Coffee Shops & Cafes

    Replace your canned cold brew and seltzer spend with a draft program that pulls 60-80% pour margin.

    Why NA on tap for coffee shop programs

    Cold brew and sparkling tea sell at $5-$7 a cup in cafes. On tap, your COGS is closer to $2 — the same drink in cans costs you $3-$4 to stock. Adding 1-2 NA tap handles transforms your afternoon and weekend revenue without adding labor. PourZero ships 1/6 bbl Sankey D kegs that drop into any standard cafe kegerator. Nitro cold brew is the highest-volume SKU in any cafe, followed by sparkling tea and kombucha. Wholesale pricing kicks in at 10+ kegs and most cafe accounts land on a standing bi-weekly order within a month.

    Cold brew on tap vs. cans

    Cafes that switch from canned cold brew to keg see 50-70% lower per-pour COGS and 2-3x higher attach rate (because pulling a tap handle is fast).

    Every category ships in standard 1/6 bbl Sankey D kegs. Pick what fits your taps.

    Equipment & setup

    Use a 1-2 tap cafe kegerator with a stout faucet for nitro (70/30 nitrogen blend) and a standard faucet for sparkling categories on CO2. Most cafes start with one nitro tap and add a second SKU within a quarter.
