What does reverse evolution have to do with Guinness?

I don’t really understand this Guinness commercial. A group of guys get together for a nice pint, and drinking it sends them back in time through the ages. They devolve into cavemen, then various animals, and finally turn into fish with feet. Is this meant to suggest that drinking turns you into a primal beast? Not that I would argue with that, but the point doesn’t seem very clear.

    Oh OK now I get it, but it had to be explained to me. Pond water tasted so bad that life evolved just for the purpose of inventing Guinness. Well that’s a little presumptuous.

      ew. Guiness is so gross, I’d take the pond water over it. Seriously, it’s nasty. I’ve tried to drink that stuff 2 times and not only is it gross but it makes my intestines scream.

      Which no one needs to know about, but that ad was funny and the music was cool.

        I’m not a big fan either. It mostly just tastes like bitter water to me, although to be fair it’s supposed to be much better in Ireland. I tried it in England and I suppose it tasted somewhat better. Still not my favorite.
