Beer In Ads #1806: F. Klemm’s Bock

January 30, 2016 By Jay Brooks


Saturday’s ad is for F. Klemm’s Bock Beer, from around 1880. F. Klemm was located in Baltimore, Maryland. But the scene if pretty amazing, if a little surreal. I bock parade from the brewery includes a float with a giant goat and a large barrel of what I can only presume is F. Klemm’s Bock Beer, with Gambrinus leading from the flaot, which is being pulled by six goats. The throngs of people watching the parade look very happy, which I suspect is because they’re drinking some of F. Klemm’s bock.

    Training goats to work in tandem would have been one hell of an accomplishment – tho way back when, single goats pulled kiddie wagons & small carriages around. If the carriage was open, one sure as hell would have wanted to navigate so to be upwind most of the time 🙂
