Beverage container

1. A beverage container comprising:

right, left, front, and rear sidewalls that define a closed space there between, wherein the right sidewall defines an opening;

a bag for storing fluids positioned in the closed space, wherein the bag includes a spout for dispensing the fluids, at least a portion of the spout extends through the opening;

first and second planar lid members that extend from a top edge of the front sidewall and the rear sidewall, respectively, that cover the bag in a closed configuration, wherein in the closed configuration a portion of a side edge that abuts the right sidewall of at least one of the first and second lid members is positioned below a top edge of the right sidewall and behind at least a portion of the spout and is configured to prevent the spout from falling into the closed space.

2. The beverage container according to claim 1 , wherein the first and second lid members define handle members.

3. The beverage container according to claim 2 , wherein the handle members define first and second tabs on opposite ends configured to enter respective slots defined on the right and left sidewalls, respectively.

4. The beverage container according to claim 3 , wherein the right and left sidewalls define respective flap members that extend from respective top edges and that are configured to be folded in an inward direction behind the right and left sidewalls, respectively, wherein the flap members each define a slot through which a respective tab of the first and second tabs extends, and wherein the flap member of the right sidewall presses against an outside surface of the at least one of the first and second lid members to maintain the side edge behind the portion of the spout.

5. The beverage container according to claim 1 , wherein the container comprises a corrugated material.

6. A method for assembling a beverage container comprising:

providing a container that includes right, left, front, and rear sidewalls that define a closed space there between, wherein the right sidewall defines an opening;

inserting a bag for storing fluids that includes a spout in the closed space, so that at least a portion of the spout extends through the opening; and

covering the bag with first and second planar lid members of the container that extend from a top edge of the front sidewall and the rear sidewall, respectively, so that a portion of a side edge that abuts the right sidewall of at least one of the first and second lid members is positioned below a top edge of the right sidewall and behind at least a portion of the spout so as to prevent the spout from falling into the closed space.

7. The method according to claim 6 , wherein the first and second lid members define handle members.

8. The method according to claim 7 , wherein the handle members define first and second tabs on opposite ends configured to enter respective slots defined on the right and left sidewalls, respectively.

9. The method according to claim 8 , wherein the right and left sidewalls define respective flap members that extend from respective top edges and that are configured to be folded in an inward direction behind the right and left side members, respectively, wherein the flap members each define a slot through which a respective tab of the first and second tabs extends, and wherein the flap member of the right sidewall presses against an outside surface of the at least one of the first and second lid members to maintain the side edge behind the portion of the spout.

10. The method according to claim 6 , wherein the container comprises a corrugated material.

11. A method for manufacturing a beverage container comprising:

providing a sheet of material;

forming, on the sheet of material, fold lines that define right, left, front, and rear sidewalls;

forming an opening on the right sidewall;

forming first and second planar lid members that extend from a top edge of the front sidewall and the rear sidewall, respectively, wherein in an assembled configuration, the first and second lid members cover a bag, and wherein in the assembled configuration a portion of a side edge that abuts the right sidewall of at least one of the first and second lid members is positioned below a top edge of the right sidewall and behind at least a portion of a spout of the bag and is configured to prevent the spout from falling into the closed space.

12. The method according to claim 11 , wherein the first and second lid members define handle members.

13. The method according to claim 12 , wherein the handle members define first and second tabs on opposite ends configured to enter respective slots defined on the right and left sidewalls, respectively.

14. The method according to claim 13 , wherein the right and left sidewalls define respective flap members that extend from respective top edges and that are configured to be folded in an inward direction behind the right and left side members, respectively, wherein the flap members each define a slot through which a respective tab of the first and second tabs extends, and wherein the flap member of the right sidewall presses against an outside surface of the at least one of the first and second lid members to maintain the side edge behind the portion of the spout.

15. The method according to claim 11 , wherein the container comprises a corrugated material.
