Beer In Ads #1007: Check Out My Red Hat

October 28, 2013 By Jay Brooks


Monday’s ad is for Schlitz, from 1952. In what looks like a hunting lodge, or at least a rec. room, a younger couple sits on a couch drinking beer out of tall pilsner glasses, while an older gentlemen with a pipe appears to be showing off his red hat. He sure looks like he’s digging that hat, but the blonde couples’ smiles look more polite than sincere.
