  • Pullin Draughts carries liquor liability and general liability insurance. We do so as a service to you - if something terrible were to happen that is alcohol-related, you could be held liable! That wouldn’t be a fun way to remember your big day or private party.

  • This depends on your venue. Some require that you apply for a Special Events Permit. ​

    ​We cannot file this for you, since we are the bar service - not the host of the party.

    Not sure? Reach out! We will help you determine what you need.

  • The short answer is YES!

    Many customers love our keg delivery service which is included in all of our mobile bar packages. We work with you to figure out a great bar menu, and we will pick up these heavy kegs and bring them to your event.

    ​We keep the kegs cold with keg jackets that completely cover the kegs and will keep them cold for up to 24 hours to avoid the dreaded foamy beer problem.

  • Typically, most of our clients fill up all 6 taps on the truck. We serve up to 6 wines by the bottle. Don’t see what you’re looking for? We will gladly serve bottles and cans upon request.

  • Nope! We take care of this. This can be a chore if you do it yourself.

    Once it’s all said and done, the average wedding uses about 200-400 pounds of ice. We find that our customers enjoy the convenience that we provide when we take care of this chore.

    ​​Typically, we use a 16oz souvenir stadium cup or stein for beer and a 9oz cup for wine, cider, and signature cocktails, which are clear plastic.

  • A good rule of thumb is two drinks per person the first hour of an event and one drink per person thereafter.

    ​We can tailor the beverage order to fit your budget and the make up of your guest list.

  • Yes - Pullin Draughts (like most mobile bars) does not have a liquor license, yet we carry the insurance to serve. As you know, our signature cocktail program is a great way to serve custom beverages - more efficient, tastier, and shorter lines for your guests.

  • We aim to arrive at least an hour before your event start time to deliver our bar and set everything up. Many times, we have multiple events in a day with our fleet of mobile bars and may deliver everything the morning of the event.

    ​We leave as soon as your bar service ends. If one of our bars is still present, no self-serving is allowed for liability reasons.

  • Yes!

    ​We can provide bottled water and soft drinks.

    ​Some of our clients opt to put a mocktail or alcohol-free cocktail on tap. This is a great option when a good amount of folks do not drink alcohol.

  • If you determine that our services are a good fit, we will forward a contract with details of your custom package. To agree to the terms, sign and return the contract with a 25% deposit to lock in your event.​

    Once the deposit is paid, we will figure out the following steps, whether that’s an in-person tasting or phone/e-mail bar menu consultation.

  • There are three main keg sizes - 1/2 barrel, 1/4 barrel, and 1/6 barrel.

    ​1/2 barrel - the large keg that will fit inside a 55-gallon bucket - serves 165 beers - very heavy but slightly more cost-effective than 1/6 barrels.

    ​1/4 barrel - you won’t see this very often, but some European and Mexican beers come in this size. They hold 82 beers

    ​​1/6 barrel - the smallest keg, perfect for when you want a variety of beverages on tap. These days, it’s more common to find kegs of wine and hard cider. When serving 5 oz pours, you’ll get about 130 servings; for beer, it's about 55.

    Most craft breweries offer their brews in 1/2 barrel and 1/6 barrel sizes.

  • We include a 30-mile round trip from zip code 13619. Our additional mileage rate changes depending on how far away your event is located.

  • Our goal is to help you throw a better party, so we only offer full-service mobile bar packages. All of these packages include bartenders.

    ​We only send friendly and professional bartenders, believing that people are our most valuable asset. We will treat you and your guests respectfully and pour them delicious drinks all night!

  • Surprisingly enough, almost anything can be put on tap. We precisely measure and mix all the necessary ingredients - ensuring that the final product will be delicious and up to par.

    ​Cocktails on tap are a great way to serve beverages at an event - weddings are a great example. Our permit allows us to serve beer, wine, cider, and malt liquor.

    We use Coldbreak ColdOne- which can hold 4 gallons of whatever you want to put on tap. This is the equivalent of roughly 100 servings (5 ounces each).

  • We have enjoyed creating unique cocktails with our clients since day one. So yes, we can develop a cocktail differently than the signature.

  • Yes, the insurance covers the serving of alcohol, including beer, wine, hard cider, and most signature cocktails. As your bar service, we are responsible for serving alcohol at your event. Our policy can also be extended to your venue if so desired.

  • One of our favorite parts of the business is helping you pick signature cocktails for your wedding bar. Although we usually build these from a tried and true recipe, we can tailor them to your liking during a private tasting.

    By batching the signature cocktail, we cut down on the dreaded long line at the bar. Remember the last time you were at an event and waited 20 minutes for a drink? The line is never more than 5-10 minutes long when you go with Pullin Draughts.
