HO WHITE AND THE SEVEN DWARVES: RAUNCHY AD PISSES OF DISNEY

Wow. This is kinda funny. An Australian beer ad featuring a tawdry version of Snow White has raised the blood pressure at the Mouse House (that's Disney, folks).

Meet "Ho White"... while the loveable dwarves Sleepy, Happy and Doc have been renamed Filthy, Smarmy and Randy - supposedly to represent different types of drinkers

Campaign creators The Foundry claimed the idea was to convince Australian drinkers that the fruit-flavored beer was "anything but sweet."

Guess it worked...

  1. The seven dwarves were in the bath together feeling happy. Happy got out and they all felt grumpy.

  2. Some things just make me proud to be an Aussie. What's funnier is that I ave neither heard of the beer (ewww is right!!) nor the company. Never mind, still shows we have a sense of humour (unless you are Harry Connick Jr, and then GO HOME DOPEY!!!)
