What the heck are Mini Tackers...and why you'll want a wall full of them
If you’re like most of us beer lovers, chances are good you’ve got at least a few brewery tin tackers hanging proudly in your garage, man cave, she shed, beer fridge corner—or wherever you go to sip and unwind. But have you discovered the magic of mini tackers yet?
These little beauties are like the session beers of the tacker world—smaller, easy to enjoy, and somehow just as satisfying as the full pour.
So…What Is a Mini Tacker?
Glad you asked.
Mini tackers are scaled-down versions of the classic tin tackers we all know and love. Same bold brewery designs, same high-quality metal, just...fun-sized. Usually around 6–8 inches wide, they’re made to fill in the awkward little gaps on your wall that your full-size tackers just can’t squeeze into.
Why Collect Mini Tackers?
There’s a reason these are quickly becoming fan favorites. Actually, a few:
-
They Fill the Gaps: You know that weird corner of your beer wall that just doesn’t quite fit a full tacker? Mini to the rescue.
-
They’re Fun (and Kinda Addictive): These things are like the potato chips of brewery merch—once you get one, you’ll want a dozen.
-
They’re Easier on the Wallet: More budget-friendly than full-size tackers, so you can build your collection without blowing your beer money.
-
They’re Great for Events & Gifts: These make awesome beer fest merch for breweries—light, packable, and fans love ’em. Whether you’re a brewery looking for affordable promo swag or taproom-friendly items that actually sell, mini tackers are a smart, low-cost way to rep your brand.
Just Getting Started? We've Got You.
Check out our new Mystery Mini Tackers Set of 3 — a surprise bundle of mini tackers that’s perfect for kickstarting your collection. It's a fun, affordable way to dip your toes in the mini tacker waters without having to pick and choose. (Also makes a killer gift for your beer-lovin’ friends.)
“Hey, What’s That Subscription Thing You Do?”
Ah, yes. The Mini Tacker of the Month Club. It’s like a beer-of-the-month club, but instead of brews, you get exclusive mini tackers delivered right to your door every month.
Each mini is custom made for the club—featuring a real U.S. brewery—and we usually toss in a little swag like stickers, magnets, or koozies for good measure. Past tackers have included everything from fish and pints to skeletons and pizza-slinging chefs (seriously).
It’s a killer way to build a collection over time—and let’s be real, who doesn’t want to get a surprise box of brewery goodness every month?
Don’t Just Take Our Word For It
Here’s what one of our collectors had to say:
Hey all, we love the selection and access to the many unique beer tin tackers of brews and breweries represented across the country. Caution...it's sooo much fun to collect and display these tackers you will run out of wall space! Problem solved as the mini tackers fill in gaps beautifully!! Again so much fun, available wall space will leave you wishing for the introduction of ornament size ultra mini tackers!!!
