No crown cap, swing top, cork or champagne hood. Anywhere in the catalog.

The check was run catalog-wide

Not against this group's shelf. There is no crown cap, swing top, cork or champagne wire hood in our catalog at all.

Which the beer property sets out in full

Including the closure family counts and the catalog-wide query. This page points at it rather than restating it.

And it reaches two of these four leaves

A sparkling hard cider and a carbonated braggot both need a closure that retains pressure. Neither can be closed from this catalog.

A still mead can

As can a still perry. For those the 91 closures here are adequate, with 57 continuous thread polypropylene lids and 12 metal CT caps.

The wine definition itself anticipates both

Paragraph (2) names sparkling and carbonated wine explicitly, so the regulation treats them as within the category. Our catalog does not treat them at all.

Which separates the two problems cleanly

The standards of fill are about quantity and apply to still and sparkling alike. The closure gap is about pressure and only reaches the sparkling ones.

All fourteen necks are continuous thread

8 at 28-400, 3 at 38-400, 2 at 33-400, 1 at 28-410. There is no crown finish and no cork finish on this shelf.

So a cork is not an option either

A cork finish is a different bore and a different wall. A continuous thread bottle cannot be corked, which rules out the traditional mead presentation.

8 flip top caps are the closest thing

And a flip top cap is a dispensing closure rather than a pressure one. It is on this shelf because the neck matched.

And no shrink band either

A tamper evident band is the usual substitute for a pressure closure on a still beverage, and there is none in this group. Which leaves the metal CT cap doing the whole job.

Still products only, from this shelf

Which is the honest summary, and it is a shelf gap rather than a routing one.

The Davis Pack Supply catalog, measured 19 October 2026. The 91 closures in this group: 57 continuous thread polypropylene lids, 12 metal or aluminum CT caps, 8 flip top caps, 5 PS CT lids, 3 spouted caps, 2 phenolic, 2 PP dome lids, 1 PS dome lid, 1 dairy lid. Checked catalog-wide on the same day, this catalog holds no crown cap, swing top, cork or champagne wire hood, so a sparkling or carbonated product cannot be closed from it. The beer property sets out that finding in full. Buyability, a snapshot: 12 of 14 containers available, 12 of 14 full case only, 2 quote only, with case packs of 12, 30, 48, 60, 72 and 102.

27 CFR 4.10, definition of wine. Paragraph (2): "Other alcoholic beverages not so defined, but made in the manner of wine, including sparkling and carbonated wine, wine made from condensed grape must, wine made from other agricultural products than the juice of sound, ripe grapes, imitation wine, compounds sold as wine, vermouth, cider, perry, and sake, only if for nonindustrial use and containing not less than 7 percent and not more than 24 percent of alcohol by volume." Paragraph (1) applies the same 7 to 24 percent range to wine as defined in sections 610 and 617 of the Revenue Act of 1918. law.cornell.edu

Written from 27 CFR 4.72 and 4.10 and from the catalog as it stood on 19 October 2026. The standards of fill regulate the quantity bottled rather than the bottle, so a non-standard container filled to a standard quantity is awkward rather than prohibited. Whether part 4 applies at all turns on the alcohol content of the product, which is not something a container catalog knows. Nothing here addresses bonded premises, formula approval, label approval, excise tax, net contents formatting, or state law. This catalog holds no crown cap, swing top, cork or champagne hood, so a sparkling product cannot be closed from it.
