No bartenders required here--the built-in CO2 cartridge and the [draught tap](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/premium-draught-cocktails) let you pour your own brew. Beer-drinkers have long known about the [kegerator](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/trust-bars), which can hold a full-sized keg or pony keg, but the Home Draught is a smaller version more suitable for smaller soirees or daily drinking. If you act quickly, there is a giveaway of 5,000 Home Draught on their website. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.2/10 - Popularity: 66% | Activity: 52% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 90% men, 10% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Kitchen](https://www.trendhunter.com/kitchen) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Portable Mini-kegs:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop a new line of portable mini-kegs that offer a variety of craft beer options for home consumption. - **Home Draught:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Create a home draught system that allows consumers to pour their favorite beer straight from the fridge, eliminating the need for bartenders or trips to the pub. - **CO2 Cartridge:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop a more eco-friendly CO2 cartridge for portable mini-kegs that reduces carbon emissions and waste. ### Where This Applies - **Beverage:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Integrate portable mini-kegs into the beverage industry by partnering with breweries to offer exclusive beer releases and limited editions. - **Home Appliances:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Collaborate with home appliance manufacturers to incorporate home draught systems into refrigerators or countertop appliances for seamless integration. - **Sustainable Packaging:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Work with packaging companies to create innovative and sustainable packaging solutions for portable mini-kegs, reducing single-use plastic and promoting eco-consciousness. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Branded Countertop Beer Taps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/guinness-microdraught.md) - [Portable Draft Beer Kegerators](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kombi-cool-tap.md) - [Ultrasonic At-Home Beer Dispensers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/guinness-microdraught-20.md) - [Compact Portable Libation Kegs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/square-one-mini-keg.md) - [Pilsner-Packed Party Kegs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/party-keg.md) - [Perfect Pint Pouring Solutions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/asahi.md) - [Grill-Inspired Beer Dispensers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/miller-lite-big-green-kegg.md) - [Smart Beer Makers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smart-beer-maker.md) - [Automated Beer-Brewing Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/home-brewing-machine.md)
