Beer In Ads #716: Unequaled In Purity & Taste

October 16, 2012 By Jay Brooks


Tuesday’s ad is for Anheuser-Busch Lager, from 1887. It’s an interesting bottle, not for the Budweiser brand name, but for St. Louis Lager Beer, on which it also extolls their gold medal wins in “Philadelphia 1876” and “Paris 1875.”

AB-1887
