Really light beer?

Anheuser-Busch is being sued in a couple of states for watering down its beers, including Budweiser and Michelob.  The suits allege that the alcohol content on the label is not accurate.  The source of the suit is reported to be former employees of the firm.  There has been no independent testing of the beer.  It does seem odd that multiple suits would be pursued based on what could be asserted are disgruntled employees.  Is the lawyer handling these suits hoping to embarrass the company to such a degree that it will pay him to go away?
