Claims4
An insulated container for keg beer, wherein the improvement comprises a securement on the container for a spigot of a keg tap, the securement comprising a band (15) into which a spigot-handle (25) is maintained hooked by twist on the spigot resulting from weight of a spigot tube (21) and any beer in the tube acting from a combined center of gravity outwards from the container, with a spigot spout (27) pointing downwards, the container being a bag, the bag having a hole in a bottom, the hole being located such that a beer-containing keg in the bag can essentially seal the hole by pressing of the bottom of the bag against a support for the bag.
An insulated container for keg beer, wherein the improvement comprises a pocket on the container for beer cups, the pocket having a closed bottom, the container being a bag, the bag having a hole in a bottom, the hole being located such that a beer-containing keg in the bag can essentially seal the hole by pressing of the bottom of the bag against a support for the bag.
An insulated container for keg beer, wherein the improvement comprises an airflow passageway to allow air flow into the container when the keg is removed, the container being a bag, the airflow passageway comprising a hole in a bottom of the bag, the hole being located such that a beer-containing keg in the bag can essentially seal the hole by pressing of the bottom of the bag against a support for the bag.
A method of using an insulated container for keg beer, wherein the improvement comprises a securement on the container for a spigot of a keg tap, the securement comprising a band (15) into which a spigot-handle (25) is maintained hooked by twist on the spigot resulting from weight of a spigot tube (21) and any beer in the tube acting from a combined center of gravity outwards from the container, with a spigot spout (27) pointing downwards, said method comprising placing the handle upwards through the band and maintaining the handle hooked in the band by twist on the spigot resulting from weight of the tube and any beer in the tube acting from a combined center of gravity outwards from the container, with the spout pointing downwards, so that dirt, lint, etc. cannot fall into it.
