Great campaign for the Lebanese Brew beer by Interesting Times. I didn’t like the TV commercial much but the print ads really kick ass. Check them all out [Here]

Too bad Almaza still tastes better.

This campaign is plastered all over Lebanon and is part of the new MTC touch campaigns done by the ad agency JWT. Brofessional Review wrote about it [Here].

You can also check the campaign website [inmynewworld.com].

Update: Legally speaking, they are allowed to use such pictures but they are prone to lawsuits if the concerned parties find it insulting anyhow. This is what happened to Benetton’s ads back in November. [Link]

I like the posters but are they allowed to do that? Don’t you need permission to put photoshoped heads of states in your ads?

Let’s all hope tourists don’t leave Lebanon for those reasons and not because the airport road is closed.

I took out Lacoste’s crocodile and put it instead of the Cedar tree. It might be a good alternative once we run out of Cedars. That or a tire burning.

Now we know where the idea for the Smeds Knefe ad came from.

It’s summertime so you know what that means! [YouTube]

It’s definitely not the wind that tore down the huge poster.

Not only is the ad dangerous for drivers, but it’s also ugly and a copycat.

Beit Misk offers Electricity 24/7, Water 24/7, Solar Heating, Gas Piping and Fiber Optics, basically everything that the Lebanese people dream of. Too bad though that a very small minority of Lebanese can afford to buy a house there.

However, and like Tarek stated, I don’t think the Lebanese are ready for such a change. I mean can you imagine no “moteur”? no blackouts? slow internet? no water? Lebanese would lose it if there’s no element of surprise and all their basic needs are met.

Welcome to Third World Lebanon, where electricity has become a privilege for the rich only.

First Communion is a traditionally important festive occasion for Catholic & Maronite families in Lebanon and is usually celebrated in the month of May.

Kelee, a shop in Zouk Mosbeh that sells gifts and gadgets for all occasions, is drawing attention by keeping Incense burning in front of its place for a few days. That ought to get him few extra customers especially that almost everyone living in that area has to pass in front of the shop to head to Beirut or Jbeil.

However, Kelee should have executed its idea better as the incense burner is badly placed and looks cheap. One might think it’s the Jean & Jean shop or nearby garage wishing everyone a blessed first communion. Garages in Lebanon are very religious as we all know.

I am loving Cafe Najjar’s new ads. I saw another one on TV but could not find it on YouTube. While looking for it, I found this really old Cafe Abi Nasr ad. I remember singing that song for weeks back when the ad came out.

The ad cracked me up.
