Kirin Beer Tanrei Green Label GREEN JUKEBOX Snow Version 60 seconds

This commercial conveys the refreshing taste of Tanrei Green Label through a unique world: a jukebox set in nature.

When Mikako Tabe discovers the jukebox and presses the “Snow” button, the gentle singing voice of Iyori Shimizu from back number begins to play.

Even the depiction of light emerging within the calm natural setting evokes a relaxed atmosphere.

The song performed in this gentle ambiance is back number’s “Heroine.” It’s a ballad that unfolds with a soft band sound, and the soaring vocals layered on top convey an uplifting, positive mood.

Perfect Suntory Beer “My Way of Drinking” 15-sec – Masato Sakai, Koji Yamamoto, Nao – Suntory CM

The three people enjoying beer deliciously while eating Genghis Khan (grilled mutton) at a restaurant are Masato Sakai, Koji Yamamoto, and Nao.

They’re fully enjoying their meal with the happy combination of meat, rice, and beer.

The reason they can enjoy it so much is that the beer they’re drinking has zero carbs! The BGM is “Dschinghis Khan,” in reference to the Genghis Khan dish they’re eating—a song performed by a West German group in 1978.

The commercial for Tanrei Green Label, with its focus on the color green, felt like a movie.

The acoustic version of “Heroine” is also fantastic.

The worldview of the lyrics—about the girl who smiles at the beauty of the snow being his own heroine—somehow feels in tune with the commercial, making it a song I want to listen to over and over.

Come to think of it, there was something like snow falling in the commercial too.
