Old Beer Commercials

[@kevinbaker6168]

I was born in the late 50's so I don't remember these ads, but I am sure my brother who was born in the mid 40's will.

[@f.lloydwrong7127]

Rainer beer, lucky lager with the riddles on the cap, hiedleburg, old Milwaukee, then coors golden, miller high life, the champagne of beers and Budweiser.

[@tempermentalw7269]

I still have my collection.

[@themagus5906]

In Baltimore we had Gunther's Beer and Ballantine as rivals for National. My grandpa was a Gunther's and Black Label man, along with Calvert whiskey and Marlboros. "Gunsmoke" on the TV while yelling "Will you kids get the hell out of in front of the TV!"

[@brixtonalijah2952]

A tip : you can watch series on Flixzone. Me and my gf have been using it for watching lots of of movies these days.

[@royalkairo8819]

@Brixton Alijah yup, I have been watching on Flixzone for since december myself =)

A college highlight was the Strohs brewery tour. For $5 you got a seat on a sold out bus and all the beer you could drink on the 35 mile trip. Once there you had beer after beer while touring the brewery. Then on to the Strohs Haus for even more beer. Finally back on the bus for ....more beer on the ride back to campus. The ride back was out of control as everyone had drank close to 20 beers each. Then a huge snowball fight in the middle of a busy intersection when we finally got dropped off. That was first and last college tour offered to Strohs.

The Blatz announcer sounds like the voice of Tony The Tiger.

[@unionrdr]

Ah, memories. I barely remember pop opening those old cone top cans. And all the old Cleveland breweries. Sometimes, change sucks.

[@luisreyes1963]

I can imagine hearing those beer ads on the radio during breaks on a football or baseball game.

[@jayvonvisger5609]

What....no Hamms beer commercials? I think they were right up there, with Miller, “ The champagne of bottled beers”.

[@themagus5906]

"From the land of sky-blue waters"...Hamm's is a great all-purpose lawn-mowin', engine-rebuildin', fly-tyin', furniture-movin', wife-beatin' beer. At popular prices.

The most compelling ads in my opinion, on which beer to try would be Olympia "It's the water" and Oertels 92 "Real Draft Beer"

[@bobbbxxx]

Oh, I thought it was "It's water".... ;)

[@colinhalliley111]

Beer tasted great before " modern" techniques to brew it in short time. Spring beer was considered a tonic . Remember can openers were called a church key. My dad loved going to the Narragansett brewery on his birthday , free beer for the birthday tour. They limited it to one though.

[@nongthip]

Schmidt was a cheap beer of choice for some of us back in 1982-83 college days. We called it "Animal Beer" because of the elk, fish, etc. on the can. It was sold in a "sport pack" of 12 cans (half-rack) at my local grocery store for $4.25. So pool funds with a few guys, pickup 2-3 of those bad boys and you're set for an evening of "quarters" (which pre-dates beer-pong). Still don't know how we managed to get drunk on that watery 3.2% piss, but when you're 18 and of limited funds it'll do. ;-)

[@ghw7192]

I always liked the Hamms bears from the land of sky blue waters.

[@davidsquires154]

Back in the day, I used to be a beer drinker. I even remember some of the beers, that I used to drink: #1.Altes, #2. Black Label, #3. Gold Label, #4. Hamm's, #5. Pabst Blue Label, #6. Miller Lite, #7. Miller, #7. Blatz,and #8. Schultz, #9. Stroh's, #10. Falstaff. Those were the only brands of beer I would drink.

[@philbrown9764]

#9...Schlitz

Lucky lager. Who don't like figuring out their seventh cap?

[@sherrycambridge1531]

i like radio commercials for old beer

[@BLMCFR]

Anyone know the beer commercial with an iron worker 10 or 20 floors up on the steel frame, and the chorus line is "Because I'm a bare handed man, and I do the work I like best"???? Probably mid to late 60's maybe early 70's.

[@mikemcclune1440]

I'm not sure but that might be an Iron City Beer commercial if it was from that time period

0:12 I had a few STROH'S malt liquors at the Burger Haven PX at Fort Hood in the early 1980's . The can read Schlitz Malt Liquor but the serve always called them Stroh's

[@thenewstuffsucks5000]

I hear so many stories that Black Label was the nastiest beer ever made. Dont know if they still make it or not

[@gregsmith7428]

I think it's still sold in Canada. Correct me if wrong.

In the early 1980s Blatz beer was the absolute cheapest beer sold by any retailer in Manitoba . We brought a lot of it to university parties.

[@coleparker]

In Southern Ca. Orange and LA county it was Brew 102. Actually, when I had to research the beer for a report, I found that the Brew master was regarded as one of the best in the business, and that after tasting it more and more, it was actually pretty good.

[@coleparker]

We also had Brown Derby and Pearl.

[@stvitalkid7981]

@@coleparker In Manitoba, the liquor stores phased out Blatz eventually in favour of another cheapie called Meister Brau. We nicknamed it "Monster Brau".

[@coleparker]

@@stvitalkid7981 I remember the old Beer commercial song for Blatz: IAM FROM MILWAUKIE AND I OUGHTA KNOW THAT BLATZ BEER IS GREAT WHERE EVER YOU GO!

[@petmycat2720]

Blatz made a light cream ale in green 7oz bottles...they were delish.

[@jameskimble6133]

I remember in 1970 , we were waiting for the government to remove all liquor commercials....but beer 🍺 hung around forever !

Can’t believe you missed “Gunther”.

Has anyone tried the generic beer before sold in 80's? It was a solid white can with a thick lettering stating BEER on the can. It was 1/4 - 1/2 the cost of the cheapest lable brand I was 14 when my mom bought it two different times. Obviously she didn't like it. And I felt like we were Kmart shopping again, since stem from weath.
