Beer line in 3/8 inch size – this is the standard size used for UK dispense installs.

This is Valpar’s Gen-X beer line – which is now known as Q-Guard. This is a high-tech multi-layer tubing that has super low gas permeability and a super-smooth internal surface made of a material that does not absorb flavour. This drastically reduces the formation of biofilms, improves the effectiveness of line-cleaning, and prolongs the life of your lines.

Typically in the UK the beer line available to free trade is plain MDP – this is a low-hygiene high-permeability basic plastic line that simply should’t even be considered suitable for beverage dispense as far as we’re concerned.

That’s why we bought in a pallet of Gen-X – so we can do our own install work at the standard we believe is required for great beer.
