Advertising

Beer. It's an advertising favorite. We all have seen the Bud Bowl and the Miller ads, but the creativity doesn't stop at the US border. Here's a wild beer commercial -- done for Guiness. Not sure how much they spent on this little puppy, but it wasn't cheap. While I think it's quite original, I am left wondering why this is a beer commercial? Answer -- we have to remember that in Europe they play it subtle. Tag line makes sense -- good things come to those who wait, but I would not hand this commercial a Golden Lion. But, as I always stress, when it comes to recognition. what's important is -- did it drive traffic or sales... did it achieve it's objective?

The campaign has been around for a while, and boy does this advertiser spend money. We don't see their ads much in the states, but they are very original. Just click around YouTube for a while and you'll see.

Here's an all time favorite.... Guiness: Rhythm of Life.
