In “Fridge Magnet,” a Guinness truck stops in a Buenos Aires neighborhood, gets all magically magnetic and starts drawing refrigerators to itself.
Notably, one random guy looks down at his glass of Guinness, which appears to be frothing mischievously. There’s a beer with some naughty ideas … and possibly a deep-seated affection for puns. “It’s alive inside,” the ad concludes — half-joking, half-not.
By Irish International BBDO. I liked Saatchi & Saatchi’s “Spoken Word” better, but “Fridge Magnet” is more in line with the casual “beer” persona. It also manages to pull that off without forsaking Guinness’s sense of playful enigma. Nice.
