“Residents of a small Australian town thought they had struck sunken treasure today after a truck crashed and dumped thousands of bottles of beer at the bottom of a river.

About 24,000 bottles of beer sank in the Tweed River, near the town of Tweed Heads and divers have been going there to claim their gold (albeit Liquid Gold).

One man has reportedly managed to get away with 400 bottle already.”
