In case you haven’t heard, the mustache look is out (thank God). In its wake, facial hair fanatics have turned to the more rugged (albeit less summer-practical) trend of Beard Nation.

With untamed face foliage garnishing the landscapes of indie rock concerts, bike shops, and coffee bars nationwide, media masterminds have discovered a new way to bring mobile advertising to hipsters’ most frequented hotspots. It’s called beardvertising.

Except not really. Beardvertising.com is a joke site launched by Cornett Integrated Marketing Solutions. The advertising agency represents clients such as Applebees, Eagle One, and A&W Restaurants — which just so happens to be the brand sponsored through beardvertising.

The A&W chain is refreshing its look to attract a younger customer base with social media campaigns that are both funny and clearly fake.

Sorry, beardos — looks like you wore those Chips Ahoy cookies on your face for nothing.
