HONORABLE MENTIONS

摘要

Ranking sixth in the Best Packages of 2013 voting is Budweiser's bowtie-shaped can. St. Louis-based Anheuser-Busch introduced the new can, which mirrors the brand's bowtie logo, in eight-packs in May. Manufacturing the specially shaped can requires a 16-step process, including 10 steps to form the bottom half of the can and an additional six steps to form the top portion, the company says. The result is an 11.3-ounce can with a slimmer middle and sleek design, it says. Trailing by just eight votes, San Francisco-based Crystal Geyser Water Co.'s Tejava bottle came in seventh place. The proprietary 18-ounce PET bottle features a 3-D, hand-sculpted tea leaf motif that gives the impression that the bottle is wrapped in tea leaves, the company says.
