Comments/description: This variation includes a CNMT 3.2% alcohol statement. Also note that it is painted over a Grain Belt label, though it is impossible to tell which variant. Blemishes include oxidation encroaching from the top rim and an isolated spot near the contents. Red is thinly applied and allows the Grain Belt label to be easily identified, with some white base coat also showing through. Has a couple of dings on the right side. All items are original unless otherwise noted. For questions, feedback, or to sell a similar item contact Dan via email.

Condition

Cans may have minor canning dings at the rims that are not evident in photos. Larger dings that do not show will be noted in the item description. A thin black vertical reflection may show on some can photos.
