I would advise against association of LO with an alcoholic drink.

+1

Though my take would be due to religious reasons. (One sixth of the
world's population adheres to a religion that prohibits the use of
alcohol.)


Which means 5/6 don't. And even of that 6th many are tolerant. eg go to a
hotel in Dubai and you can buy a beer.

So I would say -1 if it is a good ad. That is what matters, is the ad catchy
and interesting? The expression "free beer" is well-established in FOSS
circles. If we worry too much about offending people on stuff that is
generally globally acceptable we are killing free speech which is far more
important than free beer or even free software ;-).
