About the Event

Exclusive for beer – in the entire beverage universe – KEGs and modern barrels remain a very relevant packaging format.

  • Keg plants should receive the priority they deserve, as the consumer’s draft beer experience may directly influence the purchase of beer for off-trade consumption.
  • If on-trade occasions for drinking draft beer - for various reasons - are dropping the KEG format is at risk of losing its relevance entirely and as a result breweries may lose profitable volume.
  • To support draft beer Quality, this conference aims to highlight latest developments and best practices during the filling process, accompanied by highlighting critical process control points.

This 1st Draft Beer Filling Conference in Bergamo shall highlight the suitability of KEG filling for various beer types, including non-alcoholic beers. 

The conference will be held in English.
