Beer In Ads #884: Old-Time Flavor Likes You Best!

May 9, 2013 By Jay Brooks


Thursday’s ad is for Pabst Blue Ribbon, from 1963. The ad apparently is meant to look older, from the century before the Sixties. But the notion that “old-time flavor likes you best” strikes me as hilariously odd.

    They’d modified their jingle to “What’ll you have? Old time flavor; Pabst Blue Ribbon Beer”, so the print ad matches what then was in their radio & TV ads.
