Friday’s ad is for Van Alen Gueuze & Kriek, from 1949. From the late 1800s until the 1980s, poster art really came into its own, and in Europe a lot of really cool posters, many of them for breweries, were produced. I’ve been posting vintage European posters all last year and will continue to do so in 2020. This poster was created for the Van Alen lambic brewery, located in Waanrode, in East Flanders, Belgium. No on seems to know when it was founded, but it closed in 1980. I’m not sure who created this poster.
