Beer In Ads #2865: Hofbräuhaus Greetings from Munich

January 5, 2019 By Jay Brooks


Saturday’s ad is for Hofbräuhaus, from 1910s, I think. From the late 1800s until the 1940s, poster art really came into its own, and in Europe a lot of really cool posters, many of them for breweries, were produced. This poster is for Hofbräu München, and was created by Hans Heinrich Koch. The text at the bottom translates to “Greetings from Munich.”
