Beer In Ads #2535: My Beer Is Rheingold Says Joan Crawford

January 28, 2018 By Jay Brooks


Sunday’s ad is for Rheingold, from 1951. In the late 1940s and 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 film and television actress Joan Crawford says she likes to discover up and coming actors when she makes films, just like she discovered Rheingold Extra Dry.
