Hold My Beer, Ministry of Tourism!

Creative idea

Pirinsko is a local beer brand in Bulgaria, famous for its mountain origins and picturesque nature scenes in its advertising. Its slogan “Fresh from the mountains” has been in use for over a decade. While Pirinsko does a great job at showing off great views of Bulgarian nature in its ads, the Ministry of Tourism doesn’t. The work of this institution has been criticized by the population and is deemed inadequate. Pirinsko decided to produce the first-ever commercial of a country made by a brand.
