Beer In Ads #251: A Miss Rheingold Thanksgiving

November 25, 2010 By Jay Brooks

ad-billboard
Thursday’s Thanksgiving ad is a Miss Rheingold ad from 1945. In that year, Pat Boyd was Miss Rheingold. She was the fifth woman to hold the title. Leaning on a fence with a giant turkey perched on it, she’s reading “Carving the Easy Way,” which I can only assume would make the turkey nervous. “My beer is RHEINGOLD — the DRY beer! It’s beer as beer should taste.” Happy Thanksgiving everybody!

    I grew up in New York and Rheingold was one of the last beers I would drink. Sudsy yellow water.
