Abstract

An apparatus for dispensing a beverage into a receptacle is provided having one or more taps, between them defining two beverage flow paths. One of the beverage flow paths is provided with a flow restriction for inducing turbulence in the beverage flow for producing foam. An arrangement is provided for directing the beverage flow path subjected to the turbulence inducing flow restriction to be not vertically orientated at an outlet such that fobbing of the beverage in the receptacle is prevented.
