Funny Beer Ad | Carlton Draught’s “Flashbeer” Commercial
Published on
The folks at Carlton Draught have a knack for creating ads that get noticed. A couple of weeks ago we brought you the “Big Ad,” so I figured I’d show you the very different follow-up, “Flashbeer.”
This commercial, combining 80s dance and a passion for beer, is a world away from the Big Ad, but I think it’s even funnier. It tells the story of aspiring brewery worker, Kevin Cavendish. Kevin has no formal training, but he doesn’t let that stop him.
It looks like his dreams will be shattered until he breaks out a Flashdance-style dance routine. As any musical fan knows, everything is alright once you bust out a killer dance sequence.

It seems as though there are two of the same flash dance auditions out there. In 2002 the following ad won at the Big Rock Brewery’s Eddies.
The Eddies is a competition in which beer drinkers enter their own Big Rock beer ads in an effort to win up to $20,000 in prizes. The event is in it’s 15th year…go to http://www.bigrockbeer.com/eddies/index.php?p=showcase-pwinners to see this entry and others.
