Yeah.. it's more about the perception of marketing psychology. I've got a feeling whatever 'label' an Aussie or Kiwi would drink would be weirder.
And look at the difference in how Blazerchick read that label and how I did.
Same thing applies to car marques. look at domestic Japanese marques vs north american's:
Princess, Starlet.. etc. {Or crack-wh*re, if the North Koreans were to revive the Trabant**} whereas NA folks want their cars to project masculinity.. all labels typical power or strength related.. but we still think of our own cars as 'she'.
just a little philosophy thrown in..
** That's a joke..Dont ask me what that means, research it!

They want what???
Only about my cold, dead body...
I know that you only make jokes, but I donīt understand everything, īcause my english is not good enough.
But I understand what you mean...
For example, some european car names:
Mitsubishi Pajero - in Spain it has another name, because it means a w**nker
Or Toyota MR2, in France spoken like merde (sh*t)
