The Leland 18L02108 is a CO2-powered picnic pump fitted with a flex tap and an American Sankee D-system coupler, designed for portable keg dispensing where you do not have a permanent draft setup. Unlike traditional hand-pump party taps that aerate the beer (and skunk it within an hour), a CO2 picnic pump pushes beer with food-grade CO2, keeping carbonation intact for the entire serving session.

Why CO2 Picnic Pump Over Hand Pump

Standard hand-pump party taps draw beer using ambient air pressure. Within 30-60 minutes, oxidation kills carbonation and the beer tastes flat and stale. CO2 picnic pumps use a small disposable or refillable CO2 cylinder to push beer, preserving carbonation for the entire keg life and giving you proper pour control. This is the right tool for half-kegs and slim quarters at outdoor events.

Coupler Compatibility

The D-system coupler is the American standard, fitting the vast majority of US-brewed half-barrel and quarter-barrel kegs (Coors, Miller, Bud, most American craft). For European, German, or specialty couplers (S, U, G, A, M), swap the coupler. Confirm your keg's coupler type before ordering.

Tap and Setup

The flex-tap dispense head connects directly to the coupler outlet for compact form factor. Includes the CO2 charger body. Use a standard 16g threaded CO2 cartridge or hook up to a small CO2 cylinder with regulator for longer events. Same-day shipping from in-stock inventory.
