ABSTRACT:
A receptacle for holding a beverage container such as a beer keg while the exterior of the container is being subjected to a cold liquid is disclosed. In one embodiment, there is a plastic housing which is formed with a generally cup-shaped internal cavity, the cavity having a bottom cavity wall and cavity sidewalls. The housing is also formed with an opening for allowing the container and the cold liquid to be inserted in and removed from the cavity. A plurality of ribs are positioned in the cavity that have an inner centering edge which is spaced radially inward from the cavity sidewalls. The inner edges are suitable to hold the container away from the sidewalls when the container is inserted in the cavity and positioned radially inward of the inner edge. In another preferred form, there is also provided a platform positioned in the cavity and affixed to the bottom wall. It has an upper edge which is spaced upward from the cavity bottom wall so that when the container and cold liquid are inserted in the cavity and the container is positioned over the upper edge, the upper edge can hold the container off the bottom cavity wall.
