Bavaria: Mickey Rourke
An irritated Mickey Rourke enters the hotel bar of the Waldorf Astoria in New York and demands a beer. Knowing Mickey's reputation the bartender decides to give him 0.0% instead of a regular Bavaria. He won't taste the difference. So when he goes up to his room everything seems okay. Until a minibar is thrown out of the hotel window filled with Bavaria 0.0%. Now Mickey Rourke enters the bar again. But instead of going after the bartender he sits down and orders one of his beers. Right. 0.0% from Bavaria.

great! Good acting.

Excellent. Gold Lion material.
I enjoyed this ad - I feel like I should refrain from asking if Mickey is really like that in person because that would be so rude of me - not that I expect anyone here to know :D
Great stuff. Shame it tastes so sh*t, but hey, it's advertising, nobody said it had to be true, right?
