A closure assembly including a closure base configured to be selectively coupled to a neck of a liquid vessel and a valve assembly operatively coupled to the closure base, the valve assembly comprising a nozzle that extends away from the closure base and defines at least one drink outlet, shower outlets spaced around the at least one drink outlet, and a barrel valve, the barrel valve being configured to be selectively rotated relative to the closure base to transition the valve assembly between a closed configuration, in which a flow of liquid from the liquid vessel through the closure assembly is restricted, a drink configuration, in which liquid is permitted to flow from the liquid vessel through the drink outlet but not the shower outlets, and the shower configuration, in which liquid is permitted to flow from the liquid vessel through the shower outlets but not the drink outlet.

Container cap

Container cap with drink vessel

A fluid container including a fluid vessel having a neck with an opening and having an internal compartment sized to hold a volume of fluid, the internal compartment being at least partially enclosed by an opaque layer, a closure assembly removably coupled to the fluid container to cover the opening, and two or more fluid level indicators defined in the opaque layer, each fluid level indicator comprising a translucent or transparent material configured to permit light to pass through the opaque layer and into the internal compartment, at least two of the two or more fluid level indicators being positioned on circumferentially opposed sides of the fluid vessel.

Beverage container closure

Closure assemblies with distinct dispensing modes and drink containers including the same. A closure assembly includes a closure base and a valve assembly. The valve assembly includes at least one drink outlet, at least one shower outlet, and a barrel valve. The valve assembly is configured to be selectively transitioned between a closed configuration, a drink configuration, and a shower configuration. The barrel valve is configured to be selectively rotated relative to the closure base about a rotational axis of the closure assembly to transition the valve assembly between the closed configuration, the drink configuration, and the shower configuration.
