A foil container formed from a single sheet of metal about orthogonal longitudinal and transverse axes, comprises a bottom panel, a continuous wal l panel, and a continuous rim. The continuous wall panel encompasses the bottom panel and extends upwardly and outwardly from the bottom panel. The continuous rim encompasses an upper edge of the continuous wall panel and projects laterall y outwardly therefrom. The bottom panel is constructed and arranged to enhance the bend strength and aesthetic appeal of the container. In one embodiment, the bottom panel forms a network of clusters including hexagonal ribs, hexagonal embossments, and bar ribs. In another embodiment, the bottom panel forms a plurality of closely spaced, concentric elliptical ribs that occupy a substantial portion of the bottom panel.
