<p>An interconnectable beverage container system has tongue (26) and groove (24) members spaced at regular intervals about the periphery of the container (10). The tongue members (26) each have a front surface (34) and a pair of oppositely disposed axially undercut sides (36); the groove members (24) each have a pair of oppositely disposed undercut axially extending projections (30) defining a recess or groove (28). The tongue member (26) slides snugly into a respective groove member (24) of another container. Neck plates or neck flanges (18) have lobes (42) that extend radially outward to the container periphery, with cutouts (46) between successive lobes. The respective cutouts (46) of a cluster of containers) to form fingerholes (52) for lifting the cluster of containers.</p> |
