Now here is a real selling point.  Drink beer to relieve stress.  North Korean Taedonggang Beer Factory commerical touts the benefits of drinking beer and claims it is healthy.  At BBC.

Despite the communism of North Korea, the state run government ran it’s first beer commericial for a U.K. brewery that was bought and moved to the capital of Pyongyang.  Smiling actors imbibing in gusto, may just help to further fuel sales in the impoverished country, or perhaps beyond its own borders.  Capitalism anyone?

Kim Jong-Il has apparently taken an interest.  The Ledger hit the nail on the head with, Kim Jong Ale anyone?
