This video is quite cool:
This is an ad for Grimbergen beer, a Belgian beer first brewed in 1128.
Translation:
"The phoenix has marked civilizations across the ages.
The Persians disputed its legendary longevity. The Greeks worshipped its mythical regeneration. The Romans *something* its infinite power. The [some group] saw in it the promise of a new life.
Founded in 1128, the abbey of Grimbergen was ravaged by a terrible fire in 1142. Destroyed in 1566, during the Wars of Religion... After each destruction, it was rebuilt.
The phoenix became our emblem, and our inspiration... Burnt, but not consumed.
A beer with a unique character was born in our country and started a legendary saga."
