Brewer/Business Name: Lowenbrau Brewery, Munich, Germany, Non-US (See comments/description)
Manufacturer/Plant: Unknown

USBC reference: Contents/Type: 12 oz

Comments/description: Cleanest of these we have yet offered. Absolutely spotless. Great looking can too, even with its limited palette. Bold graphic lion imagery and branding text really stand out against the clean, bright white. Even the rims are almost like new. From the Todd Peters collection. All items are original unless otherwise noted. For questions, feedback, or to sell a similar item contact Dan via email.

Condition

The only glitch in the imprint is a small area of loss within which is a tiny hole. This is probably how the contents escaped. The bottom lid has been replaced and the can is half a rim taller than a standard U.S. 12-ounce flat top. The inner rim of the top lid shows atypical (compared to those seen on re-lidded cans) chuck marks that may be properties of production. We do not believe the top has been replaced. 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.
