Bright Beer Tanks (BBTs)
Crystal-Clear Beer Storage and Dispensing
Tonsen’s Bright Beer Tanks (also known as BBTs or serving tanks) are engineered to polish, carbonate, store, and serve finished beer under pressure. Built from food-grade stainless steel and designed with hygiene, durability, and precise temperature control in mind, our BBTs ensure your beer reaches your customers in peak condition—whether it’s kegging, bottling, or directly serving from tank to tap.
Our BBTs are widely used in brewpubs, craft breweries, microbreweries, and commercial beer production facilities looking to elevate quality control and dispensing efficiency.
