Beer In Ads #2026: First Choice Among Connoisseurs

September 7, 2016 By Jay Brooks


Wednesday’s ad is for Miller High Life, from the early 19th century, I think. In this ad, there’s some pretty funny text, beginning with that it’s “First Choice Among Connoisseurs.” But “Cleanliness a certainty — the light bottle does it,” is pretty good, too.
