An alcohol spirit maturation facility such as a barge or another large metal construction storage area is placed on a body of water. Racks may be placed in the storage area and filled with barrels or other containers holding alcohol spirits. The steel construction of the facility draws in and stores solar energy as heat and radiates that heat into the storage area. After the sun sets, the body of water serves as a heat sink to draw away heat. This creates more drastic temperature changes which may benefit the maturation process of stored spirits. Additionally, the natural movements and oscillations of a stationary floating facility as a result of currents, waves, and passing vessels creates a passive churning effect for containers and barrels stored therein. This combination of increased temperature and passive churning may accelerate the maturation process of alcohol spirits.

A system for sealing a beverage container includes a crown defining a bottom surface. A liner that includes an oxygen scavenger is coupled to the crown such that a top surface of the liner contacts the bottom surface of the crown. The bottom surface of the liner supports printed indicia where the bottom surface of the liner and the printed indicia are exposed to a beverage contained in the beverage container.
