Beer In Ads #831: Chips & Beer

March 26, 2013 By Jay Brooks


Tuesday’s ad is for Carling Black Label, from 1961. One form their “People Try It and They Like It” series, this one features one of the simplest beer pairings, but also one of the most sublime: potato chips and beer. Although that may simply be because I’m obsessed with potato chips. And to the end, surely they could have found some better looking chips.

    For sure Jay – maybe some Charles Chips (from PA, that we used to get delivered in cans to our house when I lived in MD; never saw them in grocery stores; I wonder if they still exist)? Barring Charles, Utz also would have been a reasonable substitute, as they were bright & not greasy.
