Extraordinarily bored, I found myself looking for hidden political messages as a walked down the drinks aisle last night. This is what happens when you read a LOT of news on a daily basis.

Technical note: If you are reading this from an RSS feed that strips images, you’re going to have to go to the original link on China Hearsay to see the two pics. That is, if you really think it’s worth the time.

This first one is not a new product, but in light of certain current events in the Middle East and Western China, the name jumped out at me. Sounds quite refreshing. I refer to the water, of course.

The second is some sort of new promotion or ad campaign by Yanjing Beer. I suppose the artwork and name here might be a reference to the fun, party-type atmosphere that one feels when imbibing a can of Yanjing. On the other hand, with the prominent red star strategically placed above the word “party,” I figured there was something else going on here. And hey, there’s no reason the Party can’t have its own beer, right?
