The at least one tap handle includes a gripping member and an illuminating member. The illuminating member attaches to the gripping member while the gripping member attaches with a beer tower opposite of the illuminating member so that the beer tower can be operated through the at least one tap handle. The illuminating member lights up within the at least one tap handle through at least one light-emitting diode light that is electrically connected with the battery.
