Skinny Blonde is a low-carb blonde ale started by The Vines drummer Hamish Rosser, winemaker Richie Harkham and artist Jarod Taylor.

[2] In June 2009, Skinny Blonde attracted controversy across Australia over its beer bottle packaging which - through the use of modern ink technology - has a 1950s style pin-up girl called 'Daisy' on the beer bottle label slowly revealing herself as the beer level drops and the bottle temperature rises.

The label and website is in no way meant to offend women or anyone else, rather embrace the Australian beach culture.
