Beer In Ads #979: With Straight-From-The-Barrel Taste

September 18, 2013 By Jay Brooks


Wednesday’s ad is for Narragansett Lager Beer, from 1963. Billing itself as “One of America’s Great Breweries,” presumably thanks to it’s “straight-from-the-barrel taste” that’s also “Light, Mild and Refreshing.” Plus there’s a beautiful shot of the brewery, though I can’t tell if that’s a photograph or a painting.
