Beer In Ads #403: Mitchells & Butlers Good Honest Ale

June 29, 2011 By Jay Brooks


Wednesday’s ad is from around the later 1920s and is for a Birmingham, England brewery known as Mitchells & Butlers, operating the Cape Hill Brewery. I love the idyllic scene of two mugs of beer, sitting on a bench surrounding a large tree, looking out over a field of grain. Now that’s “Good Honest Beer.”
