Ten years after it closed the book on its longstanding “I Am Canadian” campaign, Molson Canadian has brought the tagline out of retirement. On Friday, June 21, the brand released a new 90-second online spot, “The Beer Fridge,” on its Facebook page that ends with the classic tagline.
The spot features a beer fridge fully stocked with Molson Canadian, which was placed in a number of European cities and can only be opened by scanning a Canadian passport. A 30-second version of the ad is aired on Monday during game six of the Stanley Cup playoffs.
"The Beer Fridge" is directed by Jonty Toosey of Partners Film via Rethink.
