Beer In Ads #818: People Like Cheese And Beer

March 7, 2013 By Jay Brooks


Thursday’s ad is for Carling Black Label, from 1953. It’s from their “People Like It” series, and features a big hunk of cheese to pair with your beer. Even back then they knew that cheese and beer is a divine pairing, though I have to wonder if that’s the right beer for that cheese. Everything old is new again.

    OMG – crackers like that 60 yrs ago? – that must’ve been shot in Canada. Never saw any crackers like those when I was a kid! Cheese probably is some kind of aged cheddar. Shitty beer w/good accompaniments.
