Beer In Ads #2549: My Beer Is Rheingold Says Tommy Dorsey

February 12, 2018 By Jay Brooks


Monday’s ad is for Rheingold, from 1953. In the late 1940s and 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 jazz trombonist, composer, conductor and bandleader of the Big Band era Tommy Dorsey, talks about how he spends hours and hous working on new music and arranging, which makes him very thirsty for Rheingold Extra Dry.
