I have decided to cut the face off of six packs, and stick magnet tape on the back of them. Going to try to covere the front of my keezer below the drip tray with my favorite commercial beers. I Will cheat with beers I've already tried by asking my local ber store to save empty boxes for me, but if its a new beer I've gotta buy and drink it first.Then above the drip tray, I'm Gonna make little 4x6 labels, print and laminate them. Then put magnet tape on the back of those. Then I can put my labels under the appropriate faucet. What do you guys do for decor?

I don't because I have taps through the wall but if I were faced with that, I would do what you're doing... the face of six-pack holders. I actually have a wall of my beer bunker covered in them and I like the look of all of those colors especially if you have foreign, rare, limited-edition or an otherwise unusual ones. Unless it comes out looking overly busy or your significant other objects to the look of it, this would be my route.

Nothing, except a dry erase board to label the taps and cover where the tower used to be. Besides it's in the unfinished part of my basement next to the brewery. The top is a work area on brewday so it's getting beat up.............

Mine is decorated in OSB - I haven't done anything to the side of the walk-in, and don't plan to.

I spent a lot of time staining the mahogany and clear coating. I actually want as little clutter in the bar as possible to show it off. Not so easy though with brewery stuff around. Takes up a lot of room.ETA: that said, I want to buff my kegs to a good shine then hit them with some chalkboard paint, I figure that'd be better than labeling with painters tape like now.

Pretty slick idea. I actually went in the opposite direction on one of my kegs. I blasted it with a light glass bead to take the shine off & give it a matte finish. It really looks nice and removed all scratches & discolorations. Hadn't thought about painting it though.
