Clover POS for Breweries: Common Issues & Better Alternatives

Running a brewery means juggling taproom sales, to-go orders, merchandise, and sometimes even food service. When your Clover POS can't keep up with tab management, inventory tracking, or split payments for large groups, it disrupts the entire customer experience. We understand how critical reliable payment processing is for your craft beverage business.

Quick Solutions for Breweries Using Clover

1

Restart Your Clover Device

Power cycle your Clover by holding the power button for 10 seconds. This resolves most tab management glitches and freezing issues during busy taproom hours.

2

Clear the App Cache

Go to Settings > Apps > Clover > Clear Cache. This can fix slow menu loading and inventory sync problems common in high-volume brewery environments.

3

Check Your Internet Connection

Breweries often have thick walls and equipment that interfere with WiFi. Ensure your router is positioned near the POS or consider a wired ethernet connection for reliability.

4

Update Your Clover Software

Outdated software causes compatibility issues with third-party brewery management apps. Check Settings > About > System Updates.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does my Clover freeze during busy taproom hours?
High transaction volume combined with tab management and inventory updates can overwhelm Clover's processing. This is especially common during events, new releases, and weekend rushes. Consider a POS system designed for high-volume beverage service.
Can Clover handle brewery-specific needs like tab management?
While Clover offers basic tab features, many breweries find it lacks the specialized tools needed for flight tracking, growler fills, and taproom-specific inventory management.
What are the hidden fees with Clover for breweries?
Watch for monthly software fees, per-transaction charges, PCI compliance fees, and equipment lease costs. Many brewery owners report surprise charges on their statements.
Is there a better POS alternative for my brewery?
