1. A brewed beverage product comprising:
an oxygen permeable container containing a frozen deoxygenated brewed beverage, the frozen deoxygenated brewed beverage including a degassed coffee or tea based beverage or concentrate having dissolved oxygen physically removed from the degassed coffee or tea based beverage or concentrate to reduce its dissolved oxygen content to less than 2.0 parts per million (ppm) present in the degassed coffee or tea based beverage or concentrate;
wherein the frozen deoxygenated brewed beverage has an exterior surface formed from a frozen deoxygenated liquid so as to be substantially void-free in order to limit the ingress of oxygen into the frozen deoxygenated brewed beverage and to substantially restrict reactions involving oxygen to the exterior surface of the frozen deoxygenated brewed beverage while the frozen deoxygenated brewed beverage remains frozen.
