Beer In Ads #406: Acme Beer, It’s Tops

July 4, 2011 By Jay Brooks


Monday’s ad is for Acme Beer, and for Independence Day, too. I don’t know the age of the ad — 1930s perhaps? — but that is one seriously patriotic top hat. Happy 4th of July everybody.

    Fun. It reminds me of Dali and the surrealists with the perspective lines and the random glasses of beer.
