Ruling Beerds feature Kings and Kaisers. There's even an Incognito Beerds section showcasing all the labels with those fake nose and moustaches (Dogfish Head had to cover their drawing of Johnny Cash with a fake stache to avoid legal issues with his estate). Over thirteen themes in all will have you looking at beer shelves much differently the next time you're shopping.
