Thinking of building a bar in my garden. Anyone got any information/ experience about best way to get a draught beer/ cider installed? Not wanting anything too complicated,

It's a good idea though..

I remember looking into this but it seemed a bit expensive

Seek advice from AA.
Not looking to be too ambitious. Just a garden bar to relax in on weekends and have a few friends around now and then. Be nice to have a draught beer on hand as well as cans bottles and spirits.
Hopefully a few on here may have tried the same thing, or have friends/family who have.
Draught beer on tap trumps what I offer: I have a wee Beach Bar at the foot of my garden that accommodates one person behind the bar, a standard-sized fridge and three stools in front of it. Leaving the french doors open it is largely used to access the fridge when there are more than a handful of people. I subsequently also bought a potting shed that I made into somewhere where 8 people can sit and eat. Both erections are adorned with naff lights, cheesy signs, beach paraphernalia such as shells and pebbles, assorted beach-themed junk, nets hanging from the roofs, small music speakers etc.
I tend to have a Beach Bar evening once a month between Easter and October (themed, of course) and invite different sets of 7 people each time. However, the nearest beach is half an hour away...
Can you buy kegerators over there?

I just use a cooler in my back garden. 3 bags of ice. Keeps beer cold for a couple of days at least.
I think it's only TBG that gets his erections decorated. 🤔
Schoolboy error by TBG using the word “erection” on this board.
I was hoping for a bit more, but it seems TBG’s decorated erection is too “hard” to get past 🤔
I picked up a new batch of anti hard on tablets today, am I allowed without an erection?
Yes, https://www.brewuk.co.uk/brew-kegerator.html or, with a bit of googling you can build your own from an old freezer.
These are good for mini kegs https://www.amazon.co.uk/Klarstein-I...5Q57N9SK2CZ9YC
And if you get in to homebrew you can refill the kegs you buy in Tesco with your own beer
I acquired one last year , link below, plenty big enough. Bought a big beer fridge from gumtree which takes all the bottles etc. Wine and spirits behind bar. I acquired some beer pumps and put them on for show (not wired up or attached to proper kegs), instead for draft I buy 5 litre kegs from the supermarket ( about 9 pints), get some lager, strongbow, IPA and your sorted (£10-£18 for a keg depending on offers). Mine is in the conservatory, but treat this and bobs your uncle it will last in the garden for a few years. Then if you like it you can always step up...tip here is an old reception desk from a hairdressers, shop/office etc.....makes a fantastic bar. Run some electric out to the bar with waterproof sockets etc.....
I will post a picture up of mine if I have one
