I just experienced the "slime" for the first time after drinking Arizona for decades, in a can from a 12-pack. The best-by date is Aug 2027. I did a little research, and this date kept popping up.

You can also find plenty of results on other sites when googling this date. I really think something happened to impact products with this best-by date, but Arizona is not acknowledging it. Not trying to be dramatic, but it was so nasty that I won't be drinking this for a while...
