Beer In Ads #2730: No Matter How You Slice It


Sunday’s ad is for Michelob, one of the brands created by Anheuser-Busch as a draft-only beer in 1896. It was first packaged in 1961, and its distinctive teardrop bottle won a design award the following year. But that was replaced in 1967 “for efficiency in the production line,” but reverted to a traditional bottle in 2002. This ad is from 1971, and features a bottle and mug of beer along with a gold ball and scorecard. This ad was the back of the program for the 1971 Ryder Cup.
