Senselessly Subtitled Ale Ads

Kronenbourg 1664 Proves You Don't Need French to Enjoy this Beer

While the Kronenbourg 1664 beer imported from France may sound sophisticated, 'The French Blah Blah' commercial demonstrates that it is most certainly not pretentious or presumptuous.

In fact, as the ad states, this beer company agrees that there is "no need to be French to enjoy Frenchness." Anyone can enjoy the delicious brew, even those who would dare point at the moon and then mumble something about mayonnaise with a foreign accent, or say cheers to 'la moustaches' while subtitles translate everything as "blah blah blah."

Those who know a word or two in French will find the Kronenbourg 1664 commercial hilarious, and those who have no clue what anyone is saying can still enjoy the humor.
