A can end for a beverage container comprising: a circumferential curl centered about a longitudinal axis; a circumferential wall extending downwardly relative to the curl; a circumferential strengthening member extending radially inwardly relative from the circumferential wall; a center panel about which the circumferential strengthening member extends having a public side opposite a product side, the center panel comprising: a peripheral edge defining a radially outer perimeter of the center panel; a tear panel spaced radially inwardly from the peripheral edge, the tear panel defined by a first frangible score in the public side and a non-frangible hinge segment; a tab comprising: a lift end; a nose end opposite the lift end and overlying the tear panel in a first frangible score breaking position; a rivet island having a rivet aperture; a void region partially surrounding the rivet island having a first leg extending along a first side of the rivet island and a second leg extending along a second side of the rivet island; and a tab hinge extending between respective terminal ends of the first and second legs of the void region; a rivet attaching the tab to the center panel spaced from the tear panel; a coined portion of the center panel surrounding the rivet; a first axis extending through the nose end and lift end of the tab and through a center of the rivet; and a second axis perpendicular to the first axis; and characterized by: a selectively openable pressure equalization port spaced completely radially outwardly from the rivet island and defined by an area of the center panel located between an edge portion of a broken second frangible score and a plurality of hinge portions (114a,b) located between terminal ends of the second frangible score. a circumferential curl centered about a longitudinal axis;
