Beer In Ads #371: Jesus For Brahma

May 17, 2011 By Jay Brooks

ad-billboard
Talk about mixed mythologies, Tuesday’s ad is another recent one for the Brazilian beer, Brahma. Showing Rio de Janeiro’s “Christ the Redeemer” statue in another frenetic, colorful ad for Brahma, who before it was beer, was the Hindu god of creation, I found a little odd. Perhaps that’s just me.
