Length, age, and copyvio all check out. I agree that the original hook is the most interesting. I kinda want to try the product now... --Guerillero Parlez Moi 04:24, 29 March 2021 (UTC)
I came to promote the original hook to a quirky slot, but the numbers in the article don't match the sourcing. In particular, the so-called $1.9 million round is described in the source as $1.6 million, but it also says that with the $1.6 million round, the total raised to that point was $2.25 million, meaning $625 thousand in prior funding. Once the article is fixed, and the total raised to date specified more clearly, the hook can be updated; source 6 pegs the total at "a little more than $34 million altogether", while source 10 pegs it at "just over $34 million". Thanks for taking care of this. BlueMoonset (talk) 05:42, 12 April 2021 (UTC)
- @BlueMoonset: article and hook have been updated. Therapyisgood (talk) 14:15, 12 April 2021 (UTC)
- @Therapyisgood: I just came to promote the original hook, too, but I'm confused as to the importance of the money at all? Isn't the hookiness that a canned water company released ironic albums? No irrelevant information should be included... Kingsif (talk) 12:17, 20 April 2021 (UTC)
- @Kingsif: removed. Therapyisgood (talk) 13:10, 20 April 2021 (UTC)

[edit]If this company makes a big deal of the fact that its still water is sourced from mountains in various parts of the United States (I guess in both the Appalachian Mountains and Rocky Mountains), shouldn't we mention this in the article? ~2025-31208-44 (talk) 01:14, 17 January 2026 (UTC)
