Beer In Ads #1021: A Basket Full Of Puppies

November 15, 2013 By Jay Brooks


Friday’s ad is for Rheingold Beer, from 1953, and features Miss Rheingold from that year, Mary Austin. The ad shows Miss Rheingold on a lawn in front of what looks like a southern mansion (or even the White House? Nah) with a basket full of puppies, and poodles, no less. I’m sure this will fire up the ire of the poodle lovers of the world, but those are some ugly dogs. I’m not sure that scene makes me want a Rheingold beer.

    Maybe if the pups had lapped a little Rheingold before the shoot, they’d have looked a little better – LOL
