    Okay. This is a weird one.

    We went tubing this past Saturday and brought some SN Torpedo, Lost Nation Gose, and 21st Century Hell or High Watermelon along for refreshment.

    When we were finished we threw the cooler in the trunk of the car with a few extras of each beer that did not get drank.

    When we got home and prepared to put the beers back in the fridge the SN and the Lost Nation can were in tact but the Hell or High Watermelon cans were empty. The tops were clearly unopened, but somehow the beer seeped out. Totally weird.

    Has anyone experienced this before?

    I had a different but similar situation occur last weekend. I brought a cooler of 2Hearted to the beach with friends for the day. I woke up from a nap on the beach to find all of the tops to the cans were opened and the beer had mysteriously disappeared when I was sleeping.

    I have tried this brew and I think it could be excellent with a little tweaking, but its not too good as is.

    Never had that happen yet, but to make HoHW better, cut up some fresh watermelon and drop in the bottom of the glass. It becomes carbonated and delicious by the time the beer is empty. Make's the beer better IMO.

    Dented at all? I've seen small splits at the edges of a dent in thin walled cans.

    Never experienced it before, but you dodged a bullet. That beer is godawful.
