Desperate times call for desperate measures and 93-year-old Pennsylvania resident Olive Veronesi wasn't about to let things get too bleak.

CNN Pittsburgh affiliate KDKA shared a photo of Veronesi taken by a family member, with a Coors Light in hand and a plea written on a white board: "I NEED MORE BEER!!" The picture was shared more than 5 million times and Coors Light delivered on the request in a major way.

Veronesi said she drinks a beer every night and was down to her last few cans.

"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 Coors spokesperson told CNN.

Our favorite part? She cracked one open on the front porch as soon as the cases were delivered. Cheers, Olive! We'll definitely be raising a Coors to you.
