Interesting that they would use 1949 25c coins... and specimen strikes at that!!

Definitely NOT worth it for that beer!!

Judging by the light angles, this could be the source of those coin images...

http://coins.ha.com/itm/canada/cana...3041-29104.s

Sold for US$793.13 (Eric Beckman collection, 2015 ANA auction)

That same image is also used here: http://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces370.html

I would certainly not spend two of that coin on a beer. I would not spend anything on a beer since I'm 15, but especially not those.

It would have to be some rare and exotic beer for those to be used.
