Beverage Container Carrier

A beverage container carrier having a central plane which, when carried, is orientated substantially vertically, the container comprising:

• a handle arranged along a longitudinal axis extending in the central plane;
• a plurality of compartments, each including a base, an opening opposite said base and a compartment wall extending between said base and said opening, each compartment being adapted to support at least a lower portion of at least one beverage container;
• at least one of said compartments disposed on each side of the handle, wherein the openings are disposed above their respective bases and are disposed outwardly from said bases relative to said central plane so that the opening of the at least one compartment on one side of the handle is spaced from the opening of the at least one compartment on the other side of the handle, and, in use, beverage containers disposed in the compartments have longitudinal axes disposed at an angle to the central plane;
• wherein the handle is located proximate the compartments and remains accessible when the carrier is supporting beverage containers that have upper portions that project from the compartments as a result of the orientation of the compartments and the spacing between the compartment openings.
