Why is San Mig Light the perfect brew for parties in the Philippines?


Are alpha bros Joseph C Marco and Tom Rodriguez hitting on girls ... or is it the other way around?

Tom Rodriguez and Joseph Marco take the spotlight in San Mig Light’s newest TVC.

The 30-second clip shows the two hunks “hitting on” – which is more like being hit on – by girls at a bar – something that does happen in real life, though probably not as cute as it does in the commercial.

Accommodating the video is a helpful list of signs that a girl is interested. Not that helpful unless you have the looks, charm, and confidence of Tom or Joseph.

Thankfully, there’s San Mig Light to keep everyone company – whether you’re a girl, a guy, or a chimpanzee aged 18-34 (wait, we have chimps in Manila?)

As a light brew, it is very easy to chug – like downing a glass of water … or your mom’s pito-pito.

Despite the “light” tag, it retains that beer flavor – not that it matters when you’re drunk or trying to pick up a girl … or a guy (hey, we won’t judge)

It only contains 5% alcohol, so those allergic to alcohol should be able to drink at least a five drops (we counted) before fainting.

Speaking of which, big brother San Miguel Pale Pilsen also contains 5% alcohol.

(Trust us, we Googled!)

Both the San Miguel Pale Pilsen and San Mig Light contain 5% alcohol, but San Mig Light only contains 100 calories

Thing is, one 330ml bottle of San Mig Light only contains 100 calories – again, not that it matters when you’re effing drunk (how’s the pickup game?)

Seriously, because of the low calorie content you can afford to feel good and look good at the same time … as long as you stop eating all the pulutan, that is.

I mean – just look at Sam Pinto.

How much pulutan do you think Sam Pinto ever eats in one sitting?

Not convinced? Ok how about Bela Padilla?

You, Bella Padilla, and a bottle of San Mig Light. That's the dream.

Low alcohol content. Less calories. Easy to drink.

Like they say, get ready for “mahaba-habang inuman” – in English, that’s “long, long drinking” (we’re not drunk).

Cheers to all the San Mig Light loving men, women, and chimps!

A girl is totally into you if she turns her body towards you. Or maybe she just wants you to pay for the drinks.
