    Hey guys! I bought two crowlers today and on the way home I noticed a small amount of carbonation and beer escaping from two tiny places at the seam of one. I immediately put it in the fridge when I got home. I never had a problem with a crowler like this before, but will this last until tonight or is it going to be flat?

    If it's not too far away or too inconvenient, take it back for another. I'm sure whoever sold it would remedy the matter.

    Either return it or drink it now. The longer it seeps, the less carbonation that beer will have when you decide to open it... I would pull the trigger on that thing right now...

    Thanks everyone! We were already to far away to take it back, so we are doing exactly what everyone suggested, drinking it. We're opening it right now!

    The only time "duct tape" as a response loses: drink beer now :grinning:
