The Lindr Draught dispenser gives you a compact route into draught beer service without building a full fixed bar. It is a twin-tap unit that plugs into a standard 13A socket, chills fast, and starts pouring after a short setup window. That makes it useful for weddings, summer parties, sports socials, branded events, and beer-led receptions where bottled service would feel slow or flat. If you want draught beer on site but do not want the complexity of a permanent cellar setup, the Lindr sits in the middle ground.
The rated output is 80 pints per hour across the two taps. In real event terms, that means one unit can support about 40 to 80 guests, depending on how hard the bar gets hit and how many other drinks are available. If you are planning a corporate summer party for 150 guests, two units make a practical minimum. Three units give you breathing room if you expect a rush in the first hour or if beer is the headline drink.
Keg planning matters as much as machine count. A standard 50-litre keg holds 88 pints. At full output, one keg can disappear in a little over an hour. For longer sessions, work back from likely pint volume rather than guest count alone. Guests may have one pint each at a short reception. They may drink much more across an afternoon or evening bar.
Peak demand tends to land in waves. Doors open, speeches end, food service finishes, or a match kicks off, and the whole room heads to the bar at once. That is why the dispenser count should reflect the busiest twenty minutes, not only the total session length. If you size the bar for average demand, you will still get long queues at the points that matter most.
For a private party where beer is one option among wine, spirits, and soft drinks, one unit per 50 guests can work. For a beer-led event or festival session, the bar needs more headroom. Two to three units for 200 guests over a short heavy-use period can keep service moving far better than one unit pushed to its limit.
The dispenser needs a stable counter-height surface. A 6ft trestle table will do the job, but a straight LED bar unit gives the setup a better finish in guest-facing spaces. You should also plan for enough glasses, a stock area for reserve kegs, and the small service items that keep the bar moving.
For an Oktoberfest-style setup, pair the bar with 2-pint German beer steins and poseur tables. For a corporate reception or wedding, standard pint glasses with a cleaner bar front may suit the space better.
The unit measures 500mm wide by 220mm deep by 480mm tall and weighs 28kg. It fits on a standard bar counter or service table without taking over the whole footprint. Integrated carry handles help during setup, but you should still decide the final bar position before the unit is loaded with keg connections and active service stock.
Setup is straightforward. Place the unit on a stable surface, plug it into a 13A socket, connect the keg with the correct coupling, and allow the internal cooling system time to chill before the first pour. Current content for this product stresses quick setup, but you should still build a testing window into the schedule so the team can confirm the keg connection and flow before guests arrive.
Most UK kegs use an S-type or A-type coupler. Confirm the keg type with your beer supplier before the event and make sure the connection plan matches what arrives on site. A mismatch can delay service even when the machine itself is ready to run. It is worth allowing a short setup period for line checks, first pours, and stock positioning before the bar opens.
Think about keg changes as part of the live service plan too. Reserve kegs should sit close enough for staff to swap them without leaving the bar empty. If the event uses more than one beer line, label the stock clearly so no one has to trace couplers and product names mid-service.
The Lindr suits filtered kegged lager, cider, and draught ale. If your event needs cask ale with hand-pulled service, you will need a different setup. That distinction matters because guests notice the difference, and the bar team needs the right dispense method from the start.
The machine does one part of the job. The rest of the bar still needs thought. Plan glass collection, waste points, reserve stock, and a clear route for guests approaching the counter. If the bar shares space with wine, spirits, or soft drinks, position the beer taps where the fastest-moving drinks can pour without colliding with slower cocktail or payment points. The goal is not only chilled beer. It is a bar that keeps moving.
Check live availability and pricing for the Lindr Draught Dispenser on the product page and build the rest of the draught bar around your guest count and service window. If you know how many pints you expect to pour, how many kegs you need, and where the bar will sit, the order becomes much easier to size with confidence.
