Craft beer appliance uses pouch to compete with growlers
Beer in a pouch? Synek s home countertop unit dispenses the brew from a disposable pouch that has a 30-day shelf life.
Thanks to a new countertop beer dispenser designed for in-home use, craft beer enthusiasts can buy their favorite brews by the gallon and enjoy them for up to 30 days without fear of spoilage. The dispenser is from Synek, and the beverage packaging that completes the system is from Mondi.
The Synek dispenser refrigerates, pressurizes and dispenses beer, which is contained in a disposable pouch inside the device. Consumers can take the empty pouches to a brewery, pub or restaurant for filling or, if they are brewing hobbyists, they can fill the pouches with home brew.
