1 or 2 things about beer and me

On a day of training last week, several commercials were shown to teach us what great communication ideas are. Besides the touching OMO & ala commercials, there are some others impressed me.

Cheers beer:



Not only me, some other colleagues also find the commercials very much Stephen Chow's style. The exaggerated facial expression, the nonsensical plots… Probably because I grew up with his movies, I do think these are funny...

Well, another more classy Guinness:



Guinness from a can will taste better if poured and rested 2 minutes before drinking. That's why the commercial is nothing but the golden 2 minutes. See this.
I will try that next time for sure.

Visuals do have influence on me. At the end of the training, I wanted to get a cup of beer with buddies badly. It’s World Cup opening, what an excuse, even though I am not a soccer fans.

I do not drink much. But I do have an attachment to beer. My dad used to enjoy a cup of beer after a day of hard work. (though he swifted to red wine now...thanks to the health claim.) When I was a kid and took a sip of his beer, I disliked the bitter taste so much that I felt like drinking medicine.

I forgot until when I get used to the bitter taste. I remember in the first or second lesson by the new Japanese teacher last year, she told me I look like the type of person who is fond of wine tasting, holding a glass of red wine…and she is TOTALLY WRONG. I guess I can make up a psychological test on facebook and classify people in term of wine?

May be I associate beer with the free style and heroism now. But at the same time, I think those real beer lovers won’t bother to write up. After all, the beer says itself, just grab a cup and drink! Cheers!
