Abstract: A bottled beverage dispenser includes a bottle receiving space for receiving a bottle having an opening to an interior containing a liquid. A fitting is sealed to the opening of the bottle. The fitting has an inlet passage and an outlet passage—each for communicating with the bottle interior. A dip tube extends from the outlet passage to a bottom portion of the bottle interior. An air pump is connected to the inlet and operates to pump air into the bottle interior above the liquid. A tap is connected inline with the dip tube and is user-activated to dispense liquid from the bottle interior.
