what size is the tap trailer?
Our trailer measures 12 feet long, 66 inches wide, and stands 73 inches tall—roughly the size of a mid-size SUV with a whole lot more charm. Compact enough to fit in most driveways or event spaces, but bold enough to be the life of the party.
what does the trailer require for setup?
All we need is a flat and level space to park—think driveway, patio, or even a grassy area that’s nice and even. No hookups, no hassle. Just roll in, set up, and pour
do you need access to power at the event location?
No, our system is fully self-sufficient and doesn’t require power to keep our kegs ice cold, so there’s no need for generators or extension cords. This makes our setup ideal for outdoor or off-grid events where access to electricity may be limited.
what kind of events can i rent the trailer for?
You name it – we do it! Weddings, Birthdays, Rehearsal Dinners, Graduations, Corporate Events, Showers, Holiday Parties, Product Launches, Store Openings, Retirement Parties, Backyard Hangouts, Brunches, Family Reunions, etc.
who provides the tapped beverages?
We are a dry-hire service. As the event host, you will provide your own kegs, or we can help arrange delivery from a local vendor. Either way, we’ll take care of the setup and ensure your beverages are served perfectly.
can you serve a non-alcohol event?
Yes! We can pour a variety of beverages, including non-alcoholic options like cold brew coffee, kombucha, and sparkling water. Let us know your preference and we’ll make sure your guests are served exactly what they want.
how early do i need to book?
We suggest reserving your date as soon as possible. Even if your event is coming up soon, still reach out – we can always let you know if your date is still available.
what is the payment policy?
We do require a signed contract and a non-refundable 50% deposit to book your reservation, with the remaining balance due one month before your event date.
can i do a cash bar?
Unfortunately, due to MI state liquor laws and regulations, we cannot allow a cash bar. Without a liquor license, we are unable to collect money in exchange for alcoholic beverages. If your event is pulling a special license - lets talk!
do you have a liquor license?
The state of Michigan does not allow a liquor license without a brick and mortar location, which means unfortunately, we can’t provide the booze. We will however work very closely with you to create your perfect drink menu and estimate how much beer, wine, and alcohol you will need.
do you carry insurance?
Pour Society carries Liquor Liability and General Liability Insurance. If your venue requires proof of insurance, please let us know in advance and we’ll gladly provide the necessary documentation.
okay, so how do i book?
