ABSTRACT:
A closure for a beverage can is provided which includes an integral plastic member extending complementarily around the upper end portion of a can, including the side wall and end wall thereof, the member having a plug portion that fits within an opening in the end wall of the can for sealing the same. Scores in the plastic member provide weakened areas resulting in a pull tab by which the plug element is removed from the opening in the can and the closure is removed from the end portion of the can. The plug portion can be reinserted in the opening in the can if less than the entire contents are dispensed. A vent opening also may be provided in the can, sealed by a second plug portion of the can closure.
