As for Ryeli Taps, the whole idea started after I saw a tap trailer on YouTube and instantly fell in love with the concept. I’ve always been mechanically inclined, so naturally my first thought was “I could totally build that” and then it all took off from there.
I started working on my own tap trailer, but the idea quickly shifted into what became my first major woodworking project - the Ryeli Taps tap wall. It took me roughly six months to build in my mom’s garage, which she was kind enough to let me commandeer for basically that entire time.
A lot of love, trial and error, and probably (definitely) way too many hours went into the build. I wanted something elegant and clean enough for a wedding, but still fun and approachable enough for a backyard party or casual gathering.

Ryeli Taps is all about putting your event on tap. Our tap equipment brings a unique twist to mobile beverage service, whether its craft nonalcoholic drinks, beer, cocktails, wine, cider, or something totally custom. Our goal is to provide great drinks and a memorable setup that make your guests go “wait, that’s so cool!”. Hearing those reactions from you or your guests, are the moments that make it all worth it for me.
Meet Ryeli
“Ryeli” is a mix of Ryan + Nayeli. Nayeli is my biggest supporter and inspiration, and we’ve always playfully referred to ourselves as “Ryeli,” so it only felt right to bring that into the business too, representing the love and care I’ve put into it.
Nayeli and I are both Peruvian (me half, her full), which inspired the nods to Peru throughout the brand, including our mascot, Lolo the Llama, who I brought back with me from Peru.
