It's entertaining to discover from that Guiness web site what countries forbid viewing that ad, and under what circumstances. Those that want to bypass the Guiness web interface can view the older ad here. (Those that already saw the older ad can see an add-on "Extra Cold" at the Guiness web site.) I agree that the original ad is brilliant. When boing-boing featured it last October, I passed it around to family and friends in the States. Some told me that they were singing along...! Sammy Davis, Jr sings quite a catchy tune.
