Diageo Guinness Viral Ad - Fake but Pure Genius



Diageo Guinness Viral Ad - Fake but Pure Genius


From the Brand Republic - A "fake" and pretty saucy Guinness viral ad has surfaced on YouTube. It's best seen for yourself but Diageo has posted a statement claiming that it is in no way associated with the advert. Diageo's reaction however has prompted YouTube users to spread the video even more. Or maybe it's all an elaborate PR stunt? It's pretty much a win win situation for the company, free viral advertising and the knowledege that their brand is so strong that it's inspiring such high quality fake ads.
