A beverage package.

摘要

A beverage package has a sealed container (1) containing beer (11) having gas in solution and forming a headspace (16) containing gas at pressure greater than atmospheric. A hollow insert (7) is located in the container and is responsive to a pressure differential developed on opening the top (5) of the container to inject beer and/or gas therefrom with the beer (11) to liberate gas (17) from solution and form froth in the headspace (16). A baffle plate (12) on the insert (7) restrains the liberation of gas (17) to a minor proportion of the volume of beer (11) so that when the beer is poured into a glass, gas can evolve naturally from the beer to produce "sparkle". As an alternative to the beer and/or gas injection bubble initiation, gas from solution in the minor proportion of the volume of beer may be liberated by contact of that beer with a bubble initiating material. <IMAGE>
