Beer In Ads #954: Brewed With Corn Means Quality Beer

August 14, 2013 By Jay Brooks


Wednesday’s ad is for the American Corn Millers’ Federation, from 1933, just as Prohibition ended. The ad is singing the praises of brewing with “dry milled corn grits,” which they explain is “the public preference.” And then there’s this great tagline: “Brewed with Corn Means Quality Beer.”
