Beer In Ads #2781: Cross-Country Hops


Tuesday’s ad is for Genesee Beer, which was founded in Rochester, New York, originally along the Genesee River, but in 1878 they moved up into Rochester proper. Their Genesee Cream Ale, in the simple green can, was one of our go-to beers when I was in high school. Since 2009, the brewery has been part of North American Breweries. This ad, from 1970, features a can of Genesee Beer next to a full weirdly squat stemmed glass of beer. The background is a hop field near harvest time with the tagline “We do everything to bring you beer.”
