A Bag in Box (sometimes called a polypin) is simply a polythene bag with a built in tap in a cardboard box, very similar to a wine box.
The beer inside holds a little condition or CO2 gas but for obvious reasons cannot be carbonated (could be messy :) ).
The great thing about this method of dispensing ales is that as the beer is drawn off the bag collapses and does not let Air and Oxygen come into contact with the beer inside. This means that as long as the box is kept cool (9- 12'C) the beer will be OK for two weeks or more. The only thing that may happen once opened is that the condition (CO2) levels may drop, meaning head formation and retention may reduce.
Our beers are drawn directly from the cask to the Bag and tapped onto the beer, meaning no oxygen is left in the bag.
Bag in box beers are ideal to pull through one of our hand pulled beer engines using one of our BIB connectors, we sell everything you will need to pull the perfect pint at home in a kit,
re-conditioned Angram hand pull, pipework, connector and a 10L BIB of one of our ales,
Plus a hand made mobile frame, made from reconditioned Scaffold boards, ideal for taking your pump and ale to parties and Barbeques. (£240) Click here
Another way to pour yourself a nice creamy beer is to 1/3 fill a pint glass and use a soup blender to for no more than a couple of seconds to create a creamy head, then top up the glass, Hey Presto!
