Australian beer VB (Victoria Bitter) has come up with the solution to climate change -- the VB taste crammed into a cold mid-strength beer. VB, the ad says, is the best cold beer under the sun, which is a good thing when most beers evaporate out of the glass. Australian stereotypical male obsessions are combined: beer, barbecues, boobs and boats. Throw in a bit of extreme drought and sunburn, along with a chimpanzee, and you’ve got an Australian classic with a touch of the exotic.
