Abstract

An apparatus for preventing the formation of beer stones and a gas-induced phenomenon, in which foamy beer spurts out of a draught beer container, is disposed in a pipe between the draught beer container and a draught beer dispensing apparatus so as to prevent the gas-induced phenomenon from occurring when the beer is discharged from the draught beer container to the draught beer dispensing apparatus, and to remove and prevent the formation of beer stones deposited on the inner surface of the pipe, between the draught beer container and the draught beer dispensing apparatus, or on the inner surface of the draught beer dispensing apparatus.
