Beer In Ads #1723: Heineken’s Bier Ook

October 29, 2015 By Jay Brooks


Thursday’s ad is for Heineken, from, I believe, the 1950s. I’m not really sure when the ad is from, but given the woman serving the man so subserviently, I’d have to say 1950s or very early 1960s. The tagline, “ook biy U thuis,” is essentially “also at home” or “also in your home” (thanks Martijn for the better translation).

    It’s “Ook bij U thuis”, your translation is fine. I’d go for “also in your home”

      Thanks for help. I saw that “U” as two lower case “l”‘s but now you that point it out, I see that was wrong. Funny how your mind does that. Cheers, J
