"I need more beer!"

That's what the sign of 93-year-old Olive Veronesi read as she sat inside her home practicing social distancing during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Veronesi's plea for more beer, Coors Light to be exact, was heard by Molson Coors, who surprised her with the delivery of 150 Coors Light's to her doorstep, USA Today reported.

Coors tweeted out the delivery was a success, with Veronesi holding up a new sign that read, "Got more beer!"

"When we saw Olive's message, we knew we had to jump at the chance to not only connect with someone who brought a smile to our faces during this pandemic but also gave us a special opportunity to say thanks for being a Coors Light fan," a Molson Coors spokesman said in an email to USA Today.

USA Today reported that Coors would restock Veronesi's fridge whenever she needs them.
