A fruitless search for Super Bowl XLIII beer commercials

I’ve been looking around trying to find Super Bowl XVIII beer commercials, but as usual, none have surfaced. All the buzz this year comes from SABMiller and their plan for a one-second commercial.
My one second Miller commercial suggestion: Bu–rrrrrrp! You can see Miller’s promos here.
While chasing Super Bowl Bud Light commercials, I found a batch on YouTube, apparently put up by Anheuser-Busch. Their claim: too risky, too offensive for TV. Here’s one.
Final comment. Either they colorize the beer or they use a beer that’s not Bud Light. The Bud Light from the bottle’s the color of straw, but in the commercial, it’s a lovely, almost amber color. What’s going on here.?
