A post-mix beverage dispenser apparatus includes a syrup compartment in which a plurality of inverted flavor concentrate containers are plugged into sockets associated with selectively actuatable dispensing nozzles. The containers are also supported by snapping the sidewalls thereof into conformally shaped cooling fins. The fins and containers are properly dimensioned so that a snap-fit results therebetween. The cooling fins are directly attached to a thermally conductive plate which is in direct thermal contact with a water reservoir. Water within the reservoir is chilled by a suitable refrigeration device disposed therein. A carbonator tank is also disposed within the water reservoir.

A beverage dispenser apparatus which mixes selected flavor concentrates and water together to produce post-mix beverages of desired flavors comprising: at least one container having flavor concentrate therein, said container having a predetermined shape and dimensions and a neck portion with an opening therein; a flavor concentrate supply compartment having at least one wall defined by a thermally conductive plate; a socket for each container in said flavor concentrate supply compartment for receiving the neck portion thereof; cooling fin means for each container extending from said plate and conformally shaped to receive and support the sidewalls of an associated container therein, each said cooling fin having a slightly smaller internal dimension than the conforming external sidewall dimension of said container to provide a snapfit between each fin and container; a water reservoir in direct thermal contact with said plate; means for cooling the water in said reservoir to a desired temperature; a source of water to be mixed with said flavor concentrate; and a dispensing nozzle associated with each container and socket through which post-mix beverages of desired flavors are dispensed.
