Abstract

A beverage container (10) with improved cumulative drop height resistance includes a generally cylindrical sidewall (12), an annular supporting portion (16) that is connected to the sidewall (12) by an outer connecting portion (28), a domed panel (38) that is disposed radially inwardly of said annular supporting portion (16), and an inner connecting portion (40) that connects the domed panel (38) to the annular supporting portion (16). By manufacturing the container (10) according to the method and dimensions of the present invention, an improvement in the cumulative drop height resistance is accomplished using the same material thickness, or material that is even thinner than that which was previously used. <IMAGE>
