The commercial appears to be out of the 1950s. Very odd. 7/3/2009 2:20:18 PM

Better than the rest of the country at night when it appears to be out of the 1850s.

Cloudy, biter and sour, but is it a red beer also?

Actually, what really surprises me is the blatantly capitalist concept of television advertising in North Korea. I really did not think that it existed here. Perhaps beer will be the catalyst that infects North Korea with consumerism and brings down communism.

"What was lovelier for me in Pyongyang in 2002 and 2003 was the pear cider, which was streets ahead of this new Magners stuff."

OMG ISO! Even if "streets ahead of Magners" isn’t really saying anything.



Iso for the Taedonggang too but whoa shocked
