Beer In Ads #3895: Hamm’s Beer It’s Smooth And Mellow

October 31, 2021 By Jay Brooks

Sunday’s ad is for “Hamm’s,” from the 1930s. This ad was made for Hamm’s Brewing, which was founded in 1865 by Theodore Hamm in St. Paul, Minnesota. At its peak, it was the 5th largest brewery in America, and operated facilities in five cities, including San Francisco, L.A., Baltimore and Houston, in addition to the original brewery in Minnesota. This one features a billboard with a couple having a picnic, with the tagline: “Hamm’s Beer it’s smooth and mellow”
