Beer In Ads #1787: ABC Bock

January 11, 2016 By Jay Brooks


Monday’s ad is for American Brewing Co.’s Bock Beer, from 1890. The St. Louis brewery has a goat that’s as proud as a peacock, balancing on a beer barrel, with a glass of bock in one paw. He’s also licking his lips and has quite the pair hanging low. Plus, I really love the bines of hops wrapped around his head. That’s one handsome goat!

    That ABC goat has a pair. Did any others? I wasn’t really looking. No, I really wasn’t!
