I really don't know how this brand is thriving. I can't tell if people are buying it ironically or buying it because they think it's edgy
It's often the only water I see available at concerts these days. I mean it's fine, it tastes like water, and the can is more recyclable than plastic bottles.
They pay live nation a fortune to be the exclusive water. Love nation then charges $5+ a can
They do get immediately recycled though. At least in the venue I worked at
God I fucking hate it when I buy a can of water and it immediately turns into something else. Why did they sell me an instant recyclable can? I still need it to be a can, at least for a little bit
That’s true, not bashing the idea of water in a can, just makes me laugh that the brand is like “our product goes so hard” when it’s just water in a can. I guess product design can make all the difference. I would be more likely to buy it if it was like no name https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/No_Name_(brand) and was just SPRING WATER on a can
It's a good option to have in settings where you don't want to drink but might get shit for not drinking.
Jeez, I'd rather just not be in such a toxic crowd.
You don't always get a choice.
There's always one asshole. One guy too bro to have someone not drinking, or one person who just wants you to have a good time and won't take no for an answer. Having something that looks mildly craft beer-like makes both of those scenarios less likely to occur.
I don't know what's worse - that these people exist or that there's a product specifically designed to fool them.
Can survives the walk back through the crowd better IMO
Cool can
