Abstract

A dispensing unit 1 includes a source of pressurised gas and a dispensing font 5. A dispensing coupler 9, configured to engage a two-port valve closure 8 of a beverage container, is connected to the dispensing unit by an umbilical 3 having an outer wall. First and second passages both travel within the outer wall. The first passage conducts pressurised gas from the dispensing unit to the dispensing coupler and the second passage conducts beverage from the dispensing coupler to the dispensing unit. The first passage is defined within an inner wall which may be concentric with the outer wall and relatively thin. The second passage is defined between the inner and outer walls. The umbilical is connected to the dispensing coupler 9 by a releasable connector.The connector is non-reversible and includes spring-loaded latches which prevent the connector being removed when the dispensing coupler is operated to open the valve closure.
