taproom

Pub's pouring area

A taproom is a bar or room where beer is served on tap, typically attached to or located within a brewery.

Unlike traditional bars that stock various brands, taprooms primarily serve beers made on the premises, giving customers direct access to fresh drafts.

The term has seen renewed use with the craft beer movement, as small breweries often open taprooms as their main public-facing space.

The new brewery's taproom opens this weekend.
