Tooheys Old Age OK

Lion Nathan has launched a print and poster campaign encouraging a younger audience to take a fresh look at the “old man’s beer”, Tooheys Old Black Ale. Six photographs of old men in old skin come with copy suggesting that there’s a silver lining to getting old. “I get money for doing bugger all”. “There’s a sign on the bus that says you have to get up for me”. “I fart wherever I like and people feel sorry for me”. “Hey You! Sponge Bath Now!” “I don’t even bother getting to go to the toilet anymore”. “If I hear something I don’t like I pretend I’m deaf”. The tag line, “It’s Great Getting Old”.

Tooheys Old I Get Money for Doing Bugger All

There's a sign on the bus that says you have to get up for me

I fart wherever I like and people feel sorry for me

Hey You! Sponge Bath Now

I don't even bother getting to go to the toilet anymore

If I hear something I don't like I pretend I'm deaf
