Here's a great joke for you: What’s Guinness’ favourite dance? The can-can.
Ok, it may neither be 'great' or, technically, 'a joke', but it probably works if you squint after watching the beer brand's charming new ad from AMV BBDO, promoting its Nitrosurge device.
Playing out as an almost shot-for-shot remake of 1994's iconic Dancing Man ad, Dancing Can instead sees the titular tinny take on the distinctive moves of its predecessor.
Adorably directed by Nexus Studio's Johnny Kelly, who somehow imbues the object with real character, this cheeky throwback is going to get drinks moving.
