Most brewers use their commercials to show how drinking their beer attracts beautiful women. Kudos to Stella Artois, then, for having the balls to suggest that its beer can cause you to lose an attractive woman to some douche with a beard. I guess the hidden message here is that after all your decorative-fountain flirting get sunk by an unforeseen episode of paper-boat piracy, you can still comfort yourself with another Stella. Good on Stella for bucking traditional wisdom, though, with a clever and acceptably random, if counterproductive, ad.
