Necessity is the mother of intervention. God bless beer technology.

before this invention, the plastic cup cost 10 times more than the beer in it. Now, the plastic cup costs 50 times more than the beer inside it. I guess paying $8 for a bud goes to R&D.

That's what I was thinking.
The injection molding would require an insert of some sort pre loaded into the mold. The insert would be molded in another process.
Or maybe a dual shoot of different polymers in one mold shot -- but still the cost to produce and shoot the molds is way high for a disposable cup
HEY~!! It's a hobby~!! It's NOT supposed to make sense~!!

Wouldn't this kill any chance you would have at getting some of those killer aromas?

Except that's a Budweiser... and you can't smell water.

I'm pretty sure my urine has more alcohol than bud lite.
