A liquid dispensing tap for dispensing liquid from a vessel. The tap has a body adapted to fit an outlet from the vessel. The body has a dispensing mouth and a seat for a valve housed in the body. The valve comprises a valve head and stem and is spring-loaded to close against the seat and manually displaceable to open. The stem extends downstream of the seat and passes as a sliding seal fit through a guide in the body wall. A closing spring, outside the path of the dispensed liquid, is formed integrally with the body and is engaged with the outer end of the valve stem.
