    Whats the deal with this thing....I have the hardest time getting the beer out of their death grip. Then when I do the beer has been shaken a bunch. Whats your secret to getting your beers out of these solid plastic 4/6pack holders?

    I agree. Was driving home the other night with a sixer on the seat next to me. Thought I was going to have to let go of the steering wheel to get that damned can loose from the iron grip of that plastic holder. What's up with that? Those things are dangerous!

    It's all in the wrist.

    And I usually liberate all of them and stick them in the fridge when I get them home so they're not agitated when I drink them.

    I feel as though the beer is so much more satisfying though once I wrestle it from the grips of these holders. I agree though I liberate them the second I get home so I dont waste time banging my beers all over the place. Thanks for the video....im watching now.

    I'd like to see cans go into the cardboard sleeves, like 21st Amendment uses. Hell, you could even have 3-packs!

    Leverage! Firmly grasp it, towards the bottom of the can. Pull away from rest in an arc, with the center on the inside of the 4pk.

    My method looks a little different than posted. I like to angle the can and then try to spin it at the same time. Need to use a little bit of a pressure to do it, but normally they pop right out with little effort.

    Wait, you guys don't use pliers? :wink:

    Sometimes I find them to be rather easy do liberate a can...other times not so much. I need to buy more Revolution next time I'm in Ohio...you know, for practice.

    Anything to get away from the rings/yokes is okay in my book.

    As long as the beer is cold, it's never been a problem....
