(CNN) — The world is ready to finally see the secrets hidden inside Area 51. And
if one of those secrets happens to be living aliens, well, we have good news --
they'll be greeted with free cans of Bud Light.

Anheuser-Busch, the maker of Bud Light, initially posted on Twitter, "We'd like
to be the first brand to formally announce that we will not be sponsoring the
Area 51 raid."

However, the brand quickly backtracked off that alienating claim, saying, "Screw
it. Free Bud Light to any alien that makes it out."

The company even went as far as to make a label for its Area 51 Special Edition
Bud Light.

"Greetings Earthlings. This is the famous Area 51," it says at the top of the
can. "We know of no space beer by any other life form which is brewed and aged
to be more refreshing. Our cryogenic aging produces a light bodied space lager
with a fresh taste, a crisp, clean finish, and a smooth drinkability. Take us to
your leader...for drinks."

There's just one catch: Anheuser-Busch is asking for 51,000 retweets to make it
happen. The tweet still has a way to go.
