A dispenser is provided having a nozzle that can direct light down a stream of liquid exiting therefrom. The nozzle includes one or more features to promote a substantially laminar flow of liquid therethrough. This construction can allow the light to travel farther down the stream of liquid exiting the nozzle than in e.g., non-laminar flow. Such light transmission can allow the user to more accurately view the dispenser and liquid flow when filling a container with liquid.
