If it's good enough for Walmart, it's good enough for us. 😉

It shows up on Beerleg.com for me, might try f5 or Ctrl+f5.

Yes, F5 worked for me also.

What is F5 in this instance? How did that work?

F5

F5 is some sort of "refresh" button.

I have to use it sometimes when Windows 7 File Explorer gets "hung up".

From Firefox's list of keyboard shortcuts:

Reload F5 or Ctrl + R

Reload (override cache) Ctrl + F5 or Ctrl + Shift + R

I'm sure Wendell could give you a much more technical explanation, but the gist is that the web page gets updated and your browser is still relying on outdated files stored in it's cache. F5 or its variants tells the browser to re-download the entire webpage thus replacing the outdated files in the cache.

In layman's terms, F5 would be like a soft reboot for the website, whereas CTRL+F5 would be like a hard reboot. F5 is like clicking the refresh button in your browser, which may only show minor changes (such as replies to a thread). CTRL+F5 forces the entire site to reload (including all images, scripts, etc.).
