The best ad on Aussie TV.

I certainly love it.

www.bigad.com.au

I love Carlton Draught ads.

I agree, that commercial is great. I love it as well.

The one before it ("brewed in a big metal thing!") was pretty good, too.

LOL, he probably started spinning some time ago, when O Fortuna started being used at the openings of Ozzy Osbourne's live performances...

Not the first ad to use the tune either - easily the best one though.

The Big Ad is a great one, but so was that canoe one. I just love their slogan "Made From Beer"

What are the Midstrength ones? I don't think we've seen any over here since the "Stay a Little Bit Longer" ones.

And Carlton Draught have been in good form recently with their ads, from the football connotations to the Jimoein (sp) ones.

Showing my age now, but it was the Old Spice ad music over here when I was a kid.
