In Boston, I see Molson ads on TV quite a lot, and there are Molson
billboards every-frickin'-where. I remember this in particular because
there's one that's been across the street from my bus stop for like a year
and a half. On the other hand, I don't recall seeing the "Sweet Caroline"
one.
Favorite beer commercial musical moment: recognizing the main theme from an
early '70s German softcore porn flick in a Michelob ad about six years ago.
