Showing an illustration of four seating men standing around an open refrigerator with a can of generic Light Beer in it, the company promises that &#8220;Continental has the right beer package for you!&#8221;]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Tuesday&#8217;s ad is for Heineken. It looks like it&#8217;s from the 1960s or so, but it was definitely before 1991, when Heineken bought their importer, Van Munching &#38; Co. One interesting thing I&#8217;m pretty sure isn&#8217;t on their neck label any more is the suggestion to &#8220;Serve at 45°-50° F.&#8221; Not sure about their claim [...]]]></description>

They&#8217;re still using the &#8220;Where There&#8217;s Bud &#8230; There&#8217;s Life&#8221; campaign. Also, check out the clasp on the back of the jeans worn by the man on [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Thursday&#8217;s ad is also for Budweiser, this one from just after Prohibition ended in 1933. Expressing the celebratory mood that prohibition was finally over, but that &#8220;Something More Than Beer Is Back,&#8221; hopefully not meaning just polo. No, what they&#8217;re trying to get across is that with beer&#8217;s return, it was now &#8220;For those with [...]]]></description>

It&#8217;s a simple, clean ad, almost unusual for that time. I also like the tagline at the bottom of the ad. &#8220;Beer after beer, the choicest product of the [...]]]></description>

These two works of art were most likely used in beer advertising, though exactly when and for which brewery is a mystery.

Showing a high falootin&#8217; dame wearing a mink coat and holding a beer in her gloved hand, I guess that&#8217;s Acme&#8217;s way of making the beer appear smarter?

		<description><![CDATA[Monday&#8217;s ad is by well-known pin-up artist George Petty for Atlas Beer. And not just any Atlas Beer, but the one that&#8217;s a &#8220;Special Brew&#8221; with &#8220;Every Bottle Certified.&#8221; Curiously, after listing the benefits of beer, they suggest that you &#8220;Don&#8217;t Drink Home Brew.&#8221;]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Today is the birthday of the late Alan Eames, one of the first Americans who wrote extensively about beer, especially in a serious way, mining history and culture for his topics. I never met Alan, though I talked to him on the phone a few times. When he passed away a couple of years ago, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Our 115th Guinness ad is a variation on an earlier zoo ad. This one is vertical, and omits some of the detail of the horizontal original, showing just the bear, who&#8217;s climbed up a pole with the zookeeper&#8217;s Guinness so he can drink it undisturbed. I love he look on his face, which seems to [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Friday&#8217;s ad is for the Czech Budweiser, Budejovice, cheekily advertsing themselves as the &#8220;Imported Original Budweiser Beer.&#8221; I don&#8217;t know exactly when this ad is from, but it&#8217;s a safe bet it&#8217;s before A-B&#8217;s legal muscle was finely honed as it later became. But I do so love these old illustrations of industrial grandness.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Thursday&#8217;s ad is for Bud Light from 1988, during the Spuds McKenzie days. I never a big fan of Spuds, a booze hound, womanizing anthropomorphized pup. He debuted during the 1997 Super Bowl, a couple of years after Pete&#8217;s Wicked Ale started out with their dog Millie on their label. He was also a Bull [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Wednesday&#8217;s ad is for a German pilsner, Becker, advertising in France. I have no idea when the ad is from, though 1970s is my guess based on the hat, the hair and the overt sexual overtones. It&#8217;s not exactly subtle. The ad copy, &#8220;Bière allemande de luxe,&#8221; translates as &#8220;German Luxury Beer.&#8221;]]></description>

The video Beer Porn was apparently created by Michael O’Connor from Bailey&#8217;s Taproom in Portland, Oregon. It was filmed for the NW Film Center last fall. You can also read O&#8217;Connor&#8217;s hilarious description of his film on Brewpublic. Enjoy.]]></description>

It&#8217;s part of the series they did in the forties where they used dioramas and odd-looking clay figures in various settings. This one shows a group of 19th century dandies playing croquet in an idyllic park-like setting, most likely some rich estate.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Our 114th Guinness ad looks almost unfinished; more like a New Yorker cartoon than a polished ad. Showing a piano mover carrying not only the piano single-handedly, but also the piano player and his stool, he presumably he&#8217;s just enjoyed his bottle of &#8220;Guinness for Strength.&#8221;]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Friday&#8217;s ad is yet another old one for Schlitz, this one from 1912, and is, like the last two, touting brown bottles as the best package for beer. I have to admire the effort to educate consumers to think about the package their beer came in, something craft brewers did again roughly 70 years later. [...]]]></description>
