Anheuser-Busch is giving away a $1million grand prize in a Willy Wonka style competition.

The brewer has hidden 10,000 golden cans in its 24-can cases of Budweiser, which are sold across the US.

Anyone who finds such a can is then able to enter the draw where someone will take home $1million.

For those that find the can, all they need to do to enter is post a picture of the can on Facebook, Instagram, or Twitter tagging @budweiserusa and using the hashtags #LiveLikeAKing and #Sweepstakes.

If beer is not your beverage of choice, then there is still a way of entering the competition and have a chance of winning the money.

Simply click on the sweepstakes website and print a golden can wrap to attach to your favourite beverage. Then, follow the same social media posting instructions.

The contest began Monday and will run through Feb. 20. A winner is expected to be selected soon after the deadline through a random drawing.
