Abstract
A display rack for a plurality of beverage bottles includes a base member with a plurality of vertically disposed channel members mounted thereon. Each channel member has a longitudinal slot and a keyway along the slot. The keyway or top of the slot receives the beverage bottles and holds the bottles by the neck ring which is larger in lateral dimension than the width of the slot. Bottles are dispensed one at a time through the keyway by moving a bottle up or down to align it in the keyway where it can be pulled laterally through the keyway.
