Beer In Ads #793: Biere Paillette

January 30, 2013 By Jay Brooks


Wednesday’s ad is another one for Biere Paillette, from Brasserie Paillette in Le Havre, Seine-Maritime, France. This one shows a woman with a beer in her hand, sitting on a wooden cask and floating high above an ocean sunrise (or is that sun setting?), with a large ocean liner coming toward us full steam ahead. What does all this imagery mean? I haven’t a clue. Does anyone?

    Looks more like sunset than sunrise to me – so she’s floating in to have the keg ready for debarking passengers 🙂
