'Wasser' in the beer's name translates into English as 'water', making the beverage's literal name 'piss water', which is slang for cheap, watered-down beer. Billboards seen in-game expand the urine references, even going so far as to suggest the bottles contain nothing ''but'' urine. Furthermore, the six-crate of Pißwasser that [[Rockstar]] sent to UK website CVG Online as a present was laballed with the words 'Ü-Rhine', which is probably also a nod to the Rhine river in Germany. | ||
The radio and TV advertisements for the beer feature variations of a song sung by a stereotypical redneck man with lyrics that portray comically exaggerated effects of alcoholism, including "<nowiki>[giving]</nowiki> a dude head" and "<nowiki>[driving]</nowiki> drunk off a pier". The Pißwasser song largely spoofs [[Wikipedia:Budweiser|Budweiser's]] anthem, "This is Budweiser, This is Beer", but their cans are similar to [[wp:Grafenwalder|Grafenwalder]]. | The radio and TV advertisements for the beer feature variations of a song sung by a stereotypical redneck man with lyrics that portray comically exaggerated effects of alcoholism, including "<nowiki>[giving]</nowiki> a dude head" and "<nowiki>[driving]</nowiki> drunk off a pier".
