Beer In Ads #1356: Pointing The Way To Pleasure

October 27, 2014 By Jay Brooks


Monday’s ad is for Drewrys, from 1950. This is from a series of billboard ads from around the same time I stumbled upon, though I’m sure the originals in color are more spectacular. In this ad for Drewrys Beer and Ale, they’re advertising their Canadian association using a Mountie, although most of the beer was brewing in Indiana.
