Great ones, Toad. Budweiser had a few good ones too but I refuse to repeat any of them.
I couldn't find the one where they guys were running around in the woods, with bottle openers, looking for the Olympian artesians.
I don’t remember that one. I remember Richard Farnsworth complaining about the artesians, and their sense of humor. At the end of the commercial, the sprinklers came on and soaked him.
I loved the Coors "Rocky Mountain spring water" commercials. Beautiful scenery, easy going message.
Then, when I moved to Colorado, I discovered that the Coors brewery in Golden is about 1/4 mile from a sewage treatment plant. And everything made sense.

Hey, they gotta get flavor from somewhere........
One of the first comercials I ever remember was the National Bo and Falstaff when Dizzy Dean was the baseball announcer.Also the "Mabel,Black Label"
Dizzy Dean " He is kissing here on the strikes, and She is kissing him on the 88888" LOL
Back decades ago when I would listen to the St. Louis Cardinal ball games - Geiesdieck Bros Beer commercials always brought a smile to my 12 year old face. Naturally this was before Augie bought them it in '53.
Hey, Mabel, Black Label. Carlings Black Label beer.

Some of you may be old enough to remember the great Milt Famie. He was a phenomenal pitcher, but prone to lift a beer on the sly. Milt was pitching in the bottom of the ninth, tie game, bases loaded, and full count. Time out was called and the mound was approached. As the manager and catcher turned and left the mound, Milt produced as beer out of nowhere, and took a huge slug. The next pitch was a scorcher, but high and inside. The batter was heard to say, "That was the beer that made Milt Famie walk us." Groan! Groan!
Ballintine "Look for the three ring sign, purity, body flavor." I think they sponsored the Saturday Night Fights in the 50's. My Dad never missed them.
Well.......this IS the gunbroker board......isn't it??
A.K.A............The Swedish Bikini Shooting Team
Enjoy.........muchly!!🥵😎
The older High life adds were always funny.
You'd better reacquaint yourself with the Highlife, mister!
Six Bo's to go Joe.
Not OLD and I don't even drink Dos Equis, but I do miss this guy!! 😁
I was an eighteen year old in Basic Training when I first realized most beers were regional. When I got to Texas, I was introduced to Pearl Beer and Lone Star. Up in my neck of the woods in upstate New York, on the Vermont border, we had Ballentine, Genesee, Utica Club, Schaffer, Rheingold, and several others.
When I was a lad of seven or so, I watched the older men buy their green bottles of ale. I thought only old men could drink beer from a green bottle. The important part, they were worth a nickle a piece to me😀
When beer was real beer this was the one for me. Of course those days are long gone.
All their ads failed, but I can remember smelling the Schlitz brewery, going over the bridge into Philly, back in the 60s. They are actually coming back, God Help us, By their owners, Blue ribbon. Ugh.
When I was young there were 2 breweries in town, Storz and Falstaff. I never cared for Storz but I did my share of supporting Falstaff. Storz was the first to close, followed quiet a few years later by Falstaff. Many other companies back then sold out and their beer went down hill due to cheapening the product. They became no longer fit for consumption. Thus the bigger companies effectively eliminated their compatition.
Upstream or downstream?

Sorry to mention Budweiser there but the frogs were outstanding! Sorry. But then there was "Blatz, Blatz, Blatz Beer wherever you go . . . .
Difficult to tell the difference.

Schmitt s will ring the bell for ya'. Schmitt s of Philadelphia.
Old Frothingslosh a whale of an ale for a poor stale male. It was a Pittsburgh brewing company product and that's what they had on the label.
Well, the Budweiser frogs weren’t the first. They plagurised the Rainier beer frogs who came out in the mid- 70’s.
Buckhorn - 99 cents a six pack. There was a bar in Carson City, Nevada that advertised "A dog and a Buck for under a buck".
You'll love the dutch touch in Koehler beer
Take one down and pass it around.
OK, I'll come clean - I have a Spuds Mackenzie t-shirt (now retired).
99 can family pack. Must be a pretty large family because you know the little kids won't drink much.
LOL when I saw 99 can I thought just the opposite, must be a small family...
I don't think even Spud would drink that swill these days!
