If you’re gonna lift a story from Towleroad, you should probably give credit. Plus, if you read the comments over there you’d see that this commercial is actually 13 years old!

Also, check out the Commercial Closet – a great non-profit that tracks gay commercials (seriously, what won’t they have a non-profit for these days). In fact, the Guinness commercial is featured on there.

P.S. I’d love to see this as a regular segment. So many great gay commercials out there.
