Beer In Ads #3871: Cool Refreshment

October 7, 2021 By Jay Brooks

Thursday’s ad is for “Hamm’s,” from the 1950s. This ad was made for Hamm’s Brewing, which was founded in 1865 by Theodore Hamm in St. Paul, Minnesota. At its peak, it was the 5th largest brewery in America, and operated facilities in five cities, including San Francisco, L.A., Baltimore and Houston, in addition to the original brewery in Minnesota. This one features a glass of beer and a bottle both melting in a large ice cube, with a lake scene for a background, with the tagline: “Cool refreshment … from the land of sky blue waters!”
