The Video Thread

Hey...got an idea.

There are lots of great beer ads and videos on the net. Perhaps we could devote this thread to links to any you might come across.

Here's one that's pretty good.

Classic TV spot for Guinness:

Guinness did a series of TV spots for the UK market a couple of years ago that featured legendary (and quite insane) dub producer Lee "Scratch" Perry doing these non-sensical rants about stuff that was just vaguely related to the beer. They were available online for a while, but the site is no longer available. Too bad, they were a real hoot.

Forgive me for blatantly straying off topic. Not a video, but here's the La Chouffe Happy Song: http://www.achouffe.be/chouffeen.mp3

Yeah, that's it. Thanks for finding this! There used to be a site for this campaign at www.itsafewdegreesout.com that had all of the commericials, but it disappeared a while back.

For those who thought the innuendo in the "Had Ex Today?" campaign was too subtle...

Innuendo?

Huh? Are you making fun of me?

Here's another one I personally could relate to (from my past)!

Then there's this one that again proves hot babes can sell even mediocre beer.

Lastly, did we all know Jennifer Aniston did a Heineken ad?

I found this DVD of TV Beer Commercials from the 1950's and 1960's. Thought it might interest some of you.

Here's three Greene King ads:

And if you do a search for "beer" on the same site you'll get a motherload of ads.

Found another one that I had liked here....

http://www.beerlovercam.com/favorites.htm

It's an index of beer spots and beer themed footage. Check out the second one, "Amazing Beer Opener" from Toohey's in Australia about Aussie and Kiwi rugby fans facing off across a bar.

Did I mention my wife is Australian?
