Nostalgie and Baroko taps from LUKR in Pilsen, Czech Republic, are known worldwide for their unique design and special pouring capabilities. These taps are instruments for beer artists, and can positively impact the taste of dispensed beer.
The side-pour tap is a Central European creation, and you will see it in any Czech pub that truly cares about beer. This is, after all, the birthplace of pilsner, and the side-pour tap is ideal for pouring pilsner because it ensures there is always plenty of dense, wet foam.
The tap brings out the spicy, hoppy aromas from Saaz in Pilsner Urquell, and its special design allows you to pour the beer quickly, with wet foam on top and golden pilsner underneath.
The tap is longer than regular taps, and should be submerged in the beer as the glass fills. Unlike vertical taps, which have a piston valve, side-pour taps are built around a ball valve. You open the tap for more beer and partially close it for more wet foam. Inside the tap there is a small filter, which aerates the beer and thickens the foam.
A perfectly poured Pilsner Urquell should have a thick head of dense, wet foam to protect the beer and seal in freshness and flavor.
Tip: Partially open the tap (10-20 degrees) to get a rich foam, before fully opening the tap to pour beer under the foam.
