Beverage brewing and dispenser apparatus

Beverage server

A beverage server having a cap and a server body. The server body includes an open top container having a handle, a chamber, a pour spout, and a cap receiving portion defining a top opening. The cap is rotatably positionable within the top opening between an on-off configuration, a closed configuration, and a pour configuration. The cap has an outer facing portion and a lip, and the cap receiving portion has an inner facing portion adjacent to a top rim. Surfaces on the cap that would otherwise engage the rim and surfaces of the cap receiving portion, are cutaway to create recesses in such surfaces, which together with the top rim and surfaces of the cap receiving portion define an air vent which allows air to pass into the chamber when beverage is dispensed from the chamber via the spout when the cap is in the pour configuration.
