If you could have any object turned into a tap handle, what would it be?

[Jota21]

I've considered taking some hockey pucks and turing them into tap handles.

I did that. Easy to drill, a good size, and very sturdy.

Ya know, I would be kinda funny to have a Coors Light tap handle on a DIPA.

Sword hilt. I've got a katana, but it's hand forged and all that so I don't want to dismantle it, but it's handle would make a sweet tap handle.

alternatively, a sheathed dagger. If you need a knife for anything around the taproom, you could just pull it out.

Or....a pint of beer. You could fill it each time before using the tap.

One of these ideas is stupid, but I'm not sure which one.

A life-sized plastic skull I have laying around for some reason.

So when you pull down on it would you be using both hands around the back of the head?? Quite a visual there.

I was thinking about having a lifesized schlong cast out of that resin stuff, but my tap handle can only be about 8 inches long or it will hit stuff sitting on top of the kegerator. I don't want all my beer poured out accidentally.

I was thinking the real thing but I am still using it.

Using?


Or ABUSING??

A cactus. Stay away from my keg!

bear trap? leghold to be specific

It'd certainly deter beer snob friends from drinking that keg!

i must have a busy bust of a women as a tap handle that would complement the hand carved woodpecker I have already

you guys are cracking my sh*t up. Flo, busy bust and pecker, all in the same sentence... rock on garth. I dont even know what a busy bust is.

funny thing is, the first thing that came to my head was a big dildo.. but I didnt want to seem weird.. haha,

I currently have a Lycaonian obol from 258 A.D. depicting Percius holding the severed head of Medusa, I will be putting this in a sterling silver bezel inlayed into a tap handle for my Ferryman's ale, a nod to the tradition of placing an obol on the deceased persons tongue or eyelids to pay the ferryman for the journey to the afterlife.

Im not sure what youre talking about... but it sounds cool as hell. I want one:rockin: [quickly switches over to google to look up obol]

 

[HItransplant]

azscoob,
heres one for you. Courtesy of wikipedia:

"According to a nurse in Eubulus' Pamphilus, for the price of an obol, one could obtain a kantharos with a chous of wine, equivalent to about six ounces (three liters).[2]"

although.. im exactly sure on what planet six ounces is equivalent to three liters... pretty sure its not this one.

either way, it always comes back to the brew

I bought a friend of mine a bud light tap handle a few years ago when he had a kegerator. I don't really know why but I never gave it to him and just found it while cleaning out some stuff a few days ago and he has since moved away. I am thinking about using it on a barleywine.

You know what I want as a tap handle?

Peyton Manning's throwing arm. Can somebody cut that thing off for me?

lmao!

How about an old school hand buzzer/shocker? U are really gonna have to want that beer to pull a pint.....

 

[MeatyPortion]

That horn that Harpo Marx always squeezes.

 

[Jota21]

I have a hockey puck. What i really want is the butt-end of a hockey stick that was broken by a player in an NHL game. I have no idea how to go about getting one, but I think that would be cool

Lemme see what I can do for you...........

Do you work for a pro team? Know a player??

 

[arturo7]

A butt end should be pretty easy. Composite sticks require a wooden insert on top. Buy one of these inserts and some hockey tape and you're good to go. Any pro-shop or sporting good store that sell sells hockey gear will have this.

 

[Jota21]

I have inserts and broken sticks... I was just saying that I would love to somehow get my hands on a game-used NHL stick with the player's number written on the beat up butt-end. Preferably #87 :rockin:

 

[arturo7]

#87? Are you going to serve wine?

Your location says Huntington Beach, so I assume you just recently moved there from Philly? Philly has the only fans in the world dillusional enough to actually think the greatest player in the league is a 'whiner'

 

[arturo7]

a) not from Philly

b) everyone outside of Pittsburgh views the guy as a whiner

c) greatest player in the league is debatable

 

[captianoats]

I took the 7 habits of highly effective people class thru work. They gave me a "talking stick" That will be my next handle.

 

[MBasile]

I'm thinking of chopping the shaft off of a screwdriver and jb welding the handle to the tap collar, fits perfectly!

 

[MBasile]

I was also thinking of how to do a shrunken head handle. That should deter people from taking too much of my beer!

Sorry for the double post, I'm using the new iPhone app which has no edit feature (EDIT: now the edit button shows up!)

 

[Chipman]

How about a handle that only lets you draft beer if you insert a dollar.

 

[agroff383]

Screw all the dildo talk, give me some ****ies!! The bust of a busty woman. Although SWMBO might not like it too much and my sons would like it too much.

Man i was reading through this and it took forever to see this one i almost posted it my self! too many dildo and penis tap handle suggestions lol!
