A photo of Olive holding a dry-erase board that read "I need more beer!!" went viral after it was posted to KDKA's Facebook page last April.
Even Molson Coors heard Olive's plea, showing up at her house with 150 Coors Light beers a few days later.
She turned 94 last Friday and of course celebrated with beer.
