Does it on the can itself? I see it does on the label image, but the picture of the can seems to have fixed this.

There's also this poster:

I actually suspect I may have indirectly had some hand in this; I had some contact with the powers that be last year that involved reviewing a bunch of pIqaD sentences.

This is old news, but only this evening did I get a good look at the label: http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-HzVQddjRRzs/UzGRHdkn9KI/AAAAAAAAYwQ/svlnWhM40Is/s1600/Federation+of+Beer+Klingon+Warnog+can+design.jpg

The pIqaD reads, "bogh tlhInganpu' Suvwl'pu' moj Hegh batlh bIHeghjaj," which I read as, "Klingons are born. Death becomes warriors. May you die with honor." Except for the last part, probably not what was intended. Oh, and the {'It} in SuvwI'pu' is written as {lay}. Still, much better than many commercial efforts at using Klingon, but Federation of Beer could use a little help from Klingonists.
