Beer In Ads #942: It Takes A Big Beer To Measure Up

July 29, 2013 By Jay Brooks


Monday’s ad is for Budweiser, from 1969. The ad curiously shows an upside-down red triangle — the anti-Bass triangle — with a small glass also upside-down on the long neck of the bottle. The wisdom imparted is “the bigger the glass, the better the Bud.”
