Beer In Ads #2003: Beer By Elephant

August 15, 2016 By Jay Brooks


Monday’s ad is for Carlsberg, from sometime after 1889. It’s for their “new Carlsberg Export beer.” In the detailed illustration, a Danish ship is moored in what looks like an African coast. Cases of Carlsberg are being off-loaded by hand and then attached to elephants. I hope they get them chilled down soon, because that heat can’t be good for the beer. I wonder where they’re heading after they leave the beach?
