A beverage-dispensing assembly includes a collapsible beverage container having an outlet; a pressure chamber containing the container and including a lid having an opening, the pressure chamber being operable to apply a pressure to the container; a dispensing line having an inlet end and extending through the lid opening to a dispensing tap; and a connecting element fixing the lid to the container around the outlet so as to align the lid opening with the inlet end of the dispensing line, and to fluidly connect the dispensing line inlet end with the container outlet. The connecting element may include a sealing member that closes the container outlet and a piercer connected to the inlet end of the dispensing line that is configured to pierce the sealing member to fluidly connect the inlet end of the dispensing line to the container outlet in response to the pressure applied to the container.
