Best Ad of the Day: Furphy Refreshing Ale ‘The Unbelievable Kick’ via Thinkerbell

With many creatives in the world self isolating, Campaign Brief introduces a daily dose of inspiration – Best Ad of the Day –  chosen from the many submissions to our global creative site, Bestads.

 

Here’s a humorous beer commercial that is getting noticed in Australia.

Furphy Refreshing Ale has launched its first ever TV campaign via agency Thinkerbell Melbourne in what it hopes will bring a bit of lighthearted relief to beer and Australian Rules footy-lovers at home during this time of social distancing.

The ‘Unbelievable’ platform will celebrate the great Australian pastime of telling a tall tale over a beer.

For those outside of Australia, a “Furphy” [fur-fee] is an Australian slang expression for a rumour or tall tale, often exaggerated and shared. It’s also a beer brand.

While having a beer and a yarn in the pub with mates is not possible in Australia at the moment, there is nothing to stop people from enjoying a Furphy Refreshing Ale in the comfort of their own home and connecting socially through digital means.

The spot is directed by Good Oil’s Adam Stevens and celebrates the silver-tongued and supposed golden-booted in a tale of trial and triumph.
