One of my favorites -- I had no idea of its genesis.  In Western Samoa you
still get Vailima beer, with a label that sez "Brewed under German
supervision."  (The name Vailima is supposed to mean "Five Waters" or "Five
Streams"; but since lima means "hand" as well as "five," it can also be
read as "Water in the Hand" which makes it a pun on masturbation.)
