Well, sorry to be a tease, but it has nothing to do with the artist of the same name. SHAG beer, a recent import into Australia (never seen it!) is going to be pulled from the market. Its advertising apparently featured a bottle on a table, with the title "on the table" and underneath had the caption "Fancy a shag?", plus the comical drawing of a "shag" bird on the label was marketed too directly at kids. Deemed too offensive and will be pulled from the market. I didn't know Tiki Bong was in advertising!
