The SideBar Electronic Beverage Dispensing System is a pro at mixing cocktails. All a guest does is press a button on a touchpad, and the system dispenses the perfect amount of liquor into a glass. As many as five bottles can be connected to the system, and stored out of sight beneath a counter as far as 10 feet away from the faucet. Each button can be programmed to automatically dispense a different amount of alcohol—for example, the VODKA button can stop at an ounce, while the RUM button keeps flowing until the button is released. The system comes preassembled and preplumbed.
