I like the most is …. If you’ve got the time, we’ve got the beer. And in the end both of them lost their beer and time Ha Ha Ha

I’m a fan of “Fizzy Yellow Beer is for Wussies” by Stone, but the Hamm’s “Land of the Sky Blue Waters” makes me think of my youth!

Wow, I stand corrected. I read several accounts, both online and off, that attributed that slogan to Carling Black Label. Thanks for that. Cheers, J

You’d think so, but no, by “stag” they mean solo, without women, not the beer called “Stag.”

Good stuff – a coworker of mine in the early 80′s had a son who played in a garage band called “Schlong” – I have a T-shirt of theirs with the band’s name replacing Schlitz; in smaller print is the old Schlitz slogan When it’s right, you know it. When it’s good you feel it”

Also love Dogfish Head – & BTW, they now have 3 pubs in the DC suburbs: Gaithersburg MD & Fairfax & Falls Church VA. $5 burger nites on Mondays!

How about Hamm’s?

“From the Land of Sky Blue Waters (Waters),
From the land of pines, lofty balsam,
Comes the beer refreshing,
Hamm’s the Beer Refreshing”.
(da-da-dum-dum-dum)

I have to put in a plug for the NW. Weinhard’s most famous ad involves the fictitious Shludwiller, but for beauty I liked, “The best country in the country and the country’s best beer.”

re: Black Label and ““Pass Up ‘Ladies Beer’….Be A Man About It, Drink Stag!” – Wouldn’t that have been the slogan for Stag Beer- a mid-West brand that Carling would eventually purchase and brew, but not until the 1950′s (with the purchase of the Illinois brewery of the Greisedieck – Western Brewing Company).

On the regional list … I always liked Rhinelander’s “As refreshing as Wisconsin’s northwoods.”
