An identification element may be secured to a beverage container and include a tag and optically readable code that uniquely identify the container.

Beverage container identification and dispensing control

A moment engine is arranged to characterize and/or determine relationships between items, such as a wine, or moments, such as an event, emotional experience and/or an activity. Characteristics for the items or moments may be used to define how the items or moments relate to a two-dimensional grid, e.g., to allow the items or moments to be displayed on an X-Y grid. Relationships between items and/or moments can be determined based on the item/moment characterization on the X-Y grid, e.g., to allow for the recommendation of an item for a particular moment, or the recommendation of a moment for a particular item.
