The tapping faucet is characterized in that the compensator provided with a flow-through duct for the beer is installed in the beer conduit or shaft with its conical end in the direction of the front end of the tapping faucet housing, in which for forming an annular gap for the pressure compensation and for the opening and closing of the tapping faucet, a spring-loaded sealing and adjusting bushing provided with a corresponding conical cavity is arranged.
