Beer In Ads #219: Score Big With Hamm’s

October 19, 2010 By Jay Brooks

Tuesday’s ad is the first baseball-themed one, which will continue through the World Series. It’s for Hamm’s Beer, and is a newer ad, at least from the period of time when Pabst owned the brand, before selling it to Miller — 1983-99. But it’s a great use of the Hamm’s Bear playing baseball.

    Oh, that’s right – YOU still have a team in, don’t you? Feh.

      Two, actually. I grew up about an hour for Philly. I’m rooting for the Giants because my son Porter’s become a fan, but I’ll be cheering on whichever NL team goes to the World Series.
