Abstract

An apparatus for regulating a temperature of a fluid inside a container, and aerating and dispensing the fluid from the container is disclosed. The apparatus has a body that contacts the fluid inside the container. The apparatus includes an axis, a cavity, a fluid inlet, and an air outlet. A second fluid is located and sealed inside the cavity. An aerator separates the fluid inlet from the air outlet. The aerator includes a channel to the fluid inlet through which fluid flows out of the aerator, an air inlet through which air flows to the air outlet and into the container, and a passage from the air inlet into the channel to aerate the fluid.
