Abstract:
A pour spout, for attaching to a bottle, has a first wireless transceiver and a valve for selectively controlling flow of a beverage from the bottle. A server interface, adapted to be carried by a person who serves beverages, has a second wireless transceiver. A control unit is provided to wirelessly communicate with the second transceiver. In one mode, the pour spout transmits a spout identifier to the server interface, which responds by transmitting the spout identifier and a server identifier to the control unit. The control unit responds with a reply transmission causing the server interface to command the pour spout to open the valve. In another mode, a person selects a cocktail, that results in the control unit sending designations of a plurality of liquor ingredients to the server interface. The server interface controls dispensing each of the plurality of liquor ingredients.

Claim (Index 7):
A method for dispensing a beverage from a bottle comprising:\n determining a desire of a person to dispense the beverage from the bottle; in response to determining that desire, wirelessly transmitting a spout identifier from a pour spout attached to the bottle to a server interface that is being carried by the person; the server interface wirelessly transmitting a request message to a stationary control unit, wherein the request message contains a server identifier unique to that server interface and the spout identifier; the control unit responding to the request message by wirelessly transmitting to the server interface, a reply message that thereby authorizes beverage dispensing; the server interface responding to the reply message by wirelessly transmitting a dispensing command to the pour spout; and the pour spout responding to the dispensing command by opening a valve through which the beverage flows from the bottle.
