Abstract: An apparatus for supporting a liquid container allows a user to easily pivot the container and pour liquid outwardly therefrom. The apparatus includes a base, a cradle pivotally supported on the base, and a stop member to limit return movement of the cradle on the base. The base includes two upstanding side braces interconnected by a web. The cradle includes a floor suspended and spaced upwardly away from the base web, and further includes two spaced apart cradle side portions extending upwardly from opposite side edges of the cradle floor. The cradle may also include a bridge interconnecting the tops of the side portions thereof, and where used, the bridge may include a bow formed integrally therein to receive a neck of a liquid container. The support apparatus may be adapted to receive a standard gallon jug, or alternatively, may be adapted to receive a two-liter beverage bottle.
