    Hopefully just the pack above yours on the shelf leaked onto yours! I bet if you hang onto the packages that in due time they'll consider offering some sort of refund or replacement. #growingpains

    You've got to ask yourself, is the "alleged" leaky can half empty or half full?

    Really? I bet you can buy Naty Lite cans that dont leak.

    I've had over 175 cases of Revolution cans come through my store thus far, and not a single one has been leaky. That's 4,200 cans. We had a few busted ones that were clearly punctured by a pallet jack, but no leaky ones.

    i think that's the problem i'm referring to. sticky cans over leaky cans.

    all of my stickies were full :slight_smile:

    Good to hear! I haven't heard of any issues aside from the initial delivery, so I'm guessing it was a handling problem. I know how easy it can be, as I once punched a hole in a can of Heady Topper when opening a trade box (and no, I did not shotgun it).

    Every can I have had from them has been sticky, but no leaks. I think whoever is running the canning line is just a little overzealous.

    My 6 of Anti Hero was a bit sticky, but I didn't have it around long enough to be bothered by it! :wink:

    How much are sixers of Rev Brew going for out there? I could definitely hang with a $9.99 sixer of Eugene cans...

    Revolution is priced extremely well for the quality of beer they are pumping out. It has been a no brainer to pick up Anti-hero cans almost every single time I have been at Binny's.

    I completely agree, but I wish they would date their cans.
