Barrel taps, often used in breweries and bars, are named for their design that allows for the controlled dispensing of beverages from a barrel. The term "tap" refers to the mechanism used to draw liquid, while "barrel" indicates the traditional storage container for beer and other liquids. This setup allows for easy access to the drink while maintaining the integrity of the barrel's contents. The name reflects both the function and the origin of the equipment.
