Beer Promotion Strangely Linked to Whale Killings

Apparently, the Japanese have a substantial interest in several Australian beer brands and that’s tightened the underwear of the conservation group Sea Shepard Society and Australia’s Bluetongue Brewery who want the public to know which Australian beers are “whale safe.” Apparently, the Japanese kill a lot of whales under the pretext of research. In a video found on YouTube and on the Whales Safe Beer website, a fat Japanese business man, in response to ordering the “full whale experience” at a restaurant, is served just that but we’re sure it’s not at all what he was expecting.

Listed on the Whales Safe Beer site are the beers Bluetoungue and the Sea Shepard Society say are not whale safe. These include Castlemaine, Emu, Hahn, James Squire, Southwark, Swan, Tooheys, West End and XXXX.
