Tuesday’s ad is for Genesee Beer, which was founded in Rochester, New York, originally along the Genesee River, but in 1878 they moved up into Rochester proper. Their Genesee Cream Ale, in the simple green can, was one of our go-to beers when I was in high school. Since 2009, the brewery has been part of North American Breweries. This ad, from the 1960s, features a black and white photograph of a can of Genesee Beer, with the slogan “LOVE AT FIRST SIP.” The only color in the ad is the pink lip print on the can where, presumably, someone kissed the can.

I guess they planted their empties and got new, full cans to grow. That’s how brewing works, right?

This ad, from the 1970s, features a barefoot woman in a gold dress unconvincingly pretending to play the guitar. It’s definitely from the Seventies, it just has that wacky 70s look, especially with the flowers and the blue border. Apparently, even the beer cans at the time read “a little more exciting ….”

I think it’s possible he’s not getting any beer.

Also, in the text they’re singing the praises of the pure water they get from Hemlock Lake. I’m sure it’s fine water, but the name still reminded me of the poison that Socrates was forced to commit suicide by drinking, which doesn’t seem like the best association to draw.
