Beer In Ads #929: The Best Long Drink In The World

July 11, 2013 By Jay Brooks


Thursday’s ad for beer generally, from the 1950s. It was created for the Brewers Society, presumably a brewing industry trade organization in Great Britain. It appears that the Brewers Society became the British Beer & Pub Association in the 1990s. A quick search reveals that they did a series of ads in the 1950s using a tagline referring to beer as “The Best Long Drink in the World.” Hopefully some of British friends can explain what the hell that means?
