Beer In Ads #1226: People Try It …

June 18, 2014 By Jay Brooks


Wednesday’s ad is for Carling Black Label Beer, from 1959. Part of Carling series of ads using the tagline “People Try It … And They Like It.” Interestingly, the ads usually feature a different type of glass. This one is a glass stein with an ornamental conical lid.

    This brand is MASSIVE in South Africa. One of SABMiller’s best sellers.

    Tx, Atron, for cluing us in on ownership. In the US, that beer is just another old brand “generic” w/limited distribution.
