Beer In Ads #117: Pabst Good Old-Time Flavor

May 26, 2010 By Jay Brooks

Wednesday’s ad is for Pabst, since they’ve been in the news lately. Since the ad is so retro, trying to evoke an earlier time, I can’t be sure when exactly it was created, though my wild guess is sometime between the 1950s and 70s. But it’s certainly meant to mimic the ads of the later 1800s.

    I’m thinking late 1950’s – Pabst sponsored either Wed or Fri night boxing then, & their jingle ended with “What’ll you have? – Old time flavor – Pabst Blue Ribbon beer”
