Meaning of "tapster" in English

"Tapster" is an archaic English term historically used to describe a person, typically a male, who serves customers at a bar or tavern by drawing and serving drinks, particularly from casks or barrels. It originates from the word "tap," referring to the spout from which the drink is poured. This role is equivalent to what we now commonly refer to as a bartender. The term has largely fallen out of use in modern language, but it can sometimes be found in historical texts or literature.
