1. A container, provided with an inner space and a dispensing valve, wherein in the inner space a gas-containing beverage is included, wherein a pressure control unit is arranged for automatically controlling pressure in the inner space, wherein around the dispensing valve first coupling means extend, furthermore comprising an at least partly flexible dispensing line which at or near a first end is arranged for dispensing beverage and at an opposite second end is provided with a coupling element which is provided with second coupling means for cooperation with the first coupling means, wherein the dispensing valve is designed as a female valve, and the coupling element is provided with a largely hollow stem with an end and at least one opening, wherein the dispensing line links up with the stem opposite said end, the arrangement being such that in coupled condition of the first and second coupling means the stem extends against or into the valve and has brought the valve into and keeps it in an opened position, such that beverage can flow via the valve and said at least one opening into the dispensing line, wherein the pressure control unit, including a holder for pressure gas, is included in the container, wherein the coupling element cannot be removed from the container without damage to the container and/or the coupling element. 2. A container according to claim 1, wherein the stem has a longitudinal axis and the dispensing line has a longitudinal direction, wherein the dispensing line is connected with the coupling element, such that there the longitudinal axis of the stem extends approximately in line with the longitudinal direction of the line. 3. A container according to claim 2, wherein the dispensing line is connected with the stem. 4. A container according to claim 1, wherein the coupling element comprises a flange with a collar extending from near a longitudinal edge thereof, in which the collar is provided, remote from the longitudinal edge, with inwardly extending click means and/or outside extending click means for forming at least a part of the second coupling means, while the first coupling means comprise a complementary click edge around the valve. 5. A container according to claim 4, wherein in coupled condition the click means and the complementary click edge form a gas- and liquid-tight connection. 6. A container according to claim 1, wherein the coupling element is provided with a tube element or passage to which the dispensing line is secured. 7. A container according to claim 6, wherein a longitudinal direction of the dispensing line adjacent to the coupling element approximately coincides with a longitudinal axis of the tube element. 8. A container according to claim 1, wherein the stem, at least on an outer side, tapers slightly in a direction away from the dispensing line. 9. A container according to claim 1, wherein in the stem at least two openings are provided. 10. A container according to claim 9, wherein the at least two openings are opposite each other. 11. A container according to claim 1, wherein the at least one opening in the stem is slightly elongate with a longitudinal direction approximately parallel to the longitudinal direction of the stem. 12. A container according to claim 1, wherein the dispensing line is fixedly connected with the coupling element. 13. A container according to claim 1, wherein the coupling element is provided for forming a connection with the dispensing line. 14. A container according to claim 13, wherein forming the connection can be effected manually with the coupling element. 15. A container according to claim 1, wherein the dispensing line is provided, at or near the first end, with a valve for opening and closing the dispensing line. 16. A container according to claim 1, wherein the first and second coupling means are of self-locating design. 17. An at least partly flexible dispensing hose for use in a container according to claim 1. 18. A device for dispensing beverage, provided with a container according to claim 1, wherein the device is provided with a tapping cock in which the at least partly flexible dispensing line of the container can be laid. 19. A container according to claim 1, wherein the beverage is beer. 20. A container according to claim 1, wherein the valve is a female aerosol valve. 21. A container according to claim 1, wherein the container is closed to the environment except for the dispensing valve. 22. A container according to claim 1, wherein the valve comprises a valve body biased in a closed position. 23. A container according to claim 22, wherein the valve has a valve body and the end of the stem extends against or into the valve body. 24. A container according to claim 1, wherein the valve has a valve body and the end of the stem extends against or into the valve body. 25. A method for dispensing beverage from a container, wherein the container is set up and an at least partly flexible dispensing line is coupled therewith in that a coupling element of the dispensing line is secured around coupling means extending around a valve of the container, wherein the valve is brought into and held in an opened position by the coupling element or a part thereof, wherein beverage in the container is pressurized and so maintained using a gas supplied from a pressure control unit arranged in the container, and is guided via the valve and the coupling element into and through the dispensing line, wherein the pressure control unit, including a holder for pressure gas, is included in the container, with which pressure control unit pressure is regulated within the container both prior to and after coupling of the coupling element with the coupling means extending around the valve, wherein dispensing of the beverage is regulated by a valve or tapping cock at or near an end of the dispense line remote from the coupling element, wherein the coupling element is coupled to the coupling means extending around the valve permanently, such that after such coupling the valve is kept open permanently and the coupling element cannot be removed without damage to the coupling element and/or to the coupling means extending around the valve and/or to the valve. 26. A container, provided with an inner space and a dispensing valve, wherein in the inner space a gas-containing beverage is included, wherein a pressure control unit is arranged for automatically controlling pressure in the inner space, wherein around the dispensing valve first coupling means extend, furthermore comprising an at least partly flexible dispensing line which at or near a first end is arranged for dispensing beverage and at an opposite second end is provided with a coupling element which is provided with second coupling means for cooperation with the first coupling means, wherein the dispensing valve is designed as a female valve, and the coupling element is provided with a largely hollow stem with an end and at least one opening, wherein the dispensing line links up with the stem opposite said end, the arrangement being such that in coupled condition of the first and second coupling means the stem extends against or into the valve and has brought the valve into and keeps it in an opened position, such that beverage can flow via the valve and said at least one opening into the dispensing line, wherein the pressure control unit, including a holder for pressure gas, is included in the container, wherein the coupling element cannot be removed from the container without damage to the container and/or the coupling element and wherein the valve cannot be removed from the container without damage to the container and/or the valve.
