Abstract
An improved multiple article beverage package for cans or the like. The package is designed to contain a plurality of cans with the carrier being carried by a handle formed in the top panel of the carrier. An improved tear-out dispensing feature is provided in the subject package which is formed on one side of the package and is designed to be torn out of a portion of the side panels and a portion of the end closure flaps and to be folded downwardly to expose an immediately adjacent can within the package whenever the package is filled. The package also contains retaining means formed on the package for retaining the cans in the package after the tear-out dispenser feature has been opened so that only one can at a time may be removed without the remaining cans rolling out of the package by being forced out by the weight of cans positioned above the lower level of cans.
