Beer In Ads #2511: My Beer Is Rheingold Says Shelley Winters

January 4, 2018 By Jay Brooks


Thursday’s ad is for Rheingold, from 1954. In the early 1950s, Rheingold recruited a number of prominent celebrities to do ads for them, all using the tagline: “My beer is Rheingold — the Dry beer!” In this ad, American actress Shelley Winters, compares recording her voice and hearing the authentic playback, to Rheingold Extra Dry. Yeah, it didn’t make much sense to me either.
