Brite Tank

Brite tanks are key components in the production of beer, primarily used to clarify and carbonate beer. Brite tanks are the beverage’s final stop in the brewing process after leaving the brewhouse and fermenters. They can also be used for both the storage of finished beer for later canning, bottling, and kegging and as serving vessels allowing unpackaged beer to be poured and served in the taproom or brewpub.

Portland Kettle Works’ brite tanks have earned a reputation as some of the most consistent performing and eye-catching brewery tanks to be found anywhere. Our brite tanks will shorten your workday while continuing to provide a superior return on your investment for years to come.
