Beer In Ads #1261: Enjoy The Difference!

July 24, 2014 By Jay Brooks


Thursday’s ad is another one for Schlitz, this one from 1961. What’s the difference they want you to enjoy? Why it’s “that deep, cool, kiss-of-the-hops flavor,” of course. They want you to “move up to Schlitz.” But what’s with the animals on the wall. An oval frame with a picture of a horse? And then the ugliest painting/drawing of a dachshund on a tray? Given the paneling on the wall, I guess it must be the rec. room or man cave.

    To the beer geeks, those equate to “better off left in the animal” – LOL
