Just saw this from the article you linked to about the models of the tanks. Referring to the real tanks it said

Manufactured in Germany, the tanks were shipped to Hampton Roads last fall and barged up the Rappahannock River

So this one could be one meant to be delivered from Germany to a Coors plant anywhere and there's no immediate way of telling how long it's been floating out there.  I wonder if we'll find out more?

I wonder also if it was being shipped back to Germany because it was defective. But I find that hard to believe as I would think they would repair it on site at Coors instead of returning back to Germany.
