Tuesday’s ad is from the United Brewers Industrial Foundation, from 1939. This was well before the “Beer Belongs” series, and just before World War II. It looks like it most likely was published in a trade magazine of some type rather than a consumer periodical. But I especially love the logo as if it were the sun, coming down from the heavens.

Monday’s ad is from the United States Brewers Association, from the late 1950s. This was well after the “Beer Belongs” series, and even after the unnumbered ones the followed the “Home Life in America” series. It’s also by the United States Brewers Association instead of the United States Brewers Foundation, as earlier ones had been. As a result, I believe it’s most likely after 1956. I love the look on the woman’s face. She’s having a good time with her glass of beer by candlelight. Those glasses look more like wine glasses, though, don’t they?

Saturday’s ad is another one from the United States Brewers Foundation, from 1961. This was part of the “Beer Belongs” series, but after the numbered “Home Life in America” run. This one shows a pair of female golfers either after a round of golf, or taking a break during, stopping on the side of the course to enjoy a frosty beverage while they tally their scores. I assume they’re done with their round, but then why didn’t they first turn in their cart and head to the clubhouse for their beer and accounting?

Friday’s ad is still another one from the United States Brewers Foundation, also from 1959. This was part of the “Beer Belongs” series, but after the numbered “Home Life in America” run. After a man manages to grill to steaks to perfection — “Good for you! — boy does his wife look happy. I mean, really happy. Too happy.

Thursday’s ad is yet another one from the United States Brewers Foundation, also from 1959. This was part of the “Beer Belongs” series, but after the numbered “Home Life in America” run. After a couple gets up on water skis — “Good for you! — is apparently yelled to them by the man waving from the boat. Shouldn’t he be driving the boat?

Wednesday’s ad is another one from the United States Brewers Foundation, this time from 1959. This was part of the “Beer Belongs” series, but after the numbered “Home Life in America” run. After a great jump on your horse — “Good for you! — they suggest having a “good glass of beer” in celebration. “Nothing, you know, is so rewarding,” they add.

Tuesday’s ad is yet another one from the United States Brewers Foundation, again from 1956. This was part of the “Beer Belongs” series, but after the numbered “Home Life in America” run. I love the ad copy on all of these. “Beer has its own wonderful way of saying … ‘Time for a Breather.'” But this one is a bit weirder. I’m sure the dude has been working hard, but he looks like … well, like he’s a bit of a dandy. Who dresses up like that to do yard work? And those white gloves look pretty spotless, don’t they? Those are not the gloves of a man who’s worked hard enough to take a breather.

Monday’s ad is another one from the United States Brewers Foundation, also from 1956. This was part of the “Beer Belongs” series, but after the numbered “Home Life in America” run. I love the ad copy on all of these. “Beer has its own way of making this the … ‘Best part of the day.'” But it gets even better. “A tall cold glass of beer or ale — right off the ice — could anything ever fit in better with the fun and relaxation of a summer’s day?” The answer, by the way, is “no.”
