Swimmer to market low-carb Guinness beer

Posted by jonknee on September 7 in Business, Celebrity

Athens 50-meter freestyle gold medalist Gary Hall Jr. will appear in a low-carb advertising campaign by Guinness this month. The company has promoted its low-carb attribute before, though this will be the first advertising of it. Mr. Hall is the fastest swimmer in US history.

"To be successful at this level of competition, it's important to watch what we put into our bodies," Hall said. "And drinking Guinness allows me to enjoy a great tasting beer without the physical sacrifice or guilt."
