  • I haven't had alcohol in 5 years, but Beer was a big part of my life for 39 years. I didn't do anything without beer, always had one in my hand . That was until my stomach and digestive system ganged up on me and forced me to not consume my beloved golden nectar. Now I got this thing for Cherry Pepsi and marijuana.

    And to think, these commercials were just 20-30 years after Prohibition ended. To them, Prohibition was as recent as Y2K is to us.

    Sometimes I wake up in the morning craving a beer... But that's ok... Cause I'm retired!
  • I sing along to all the jingles and practically know all the words by heart. I love how nobody ever says anything about drinking responsibly.

    At 5:30, that guy peeking over the door is Bill Idelson. He had a recurring role as Sally's on-and-off boyfriend Herman on "The Dick Van Dyke Show." He also did ads for Hamm's.
  • Back when commercials were made with effort. Today’s commercials are a freaking joke.

    Watching some of these commercials reminds me of when I was a kid and my old man and I were watching baseball games on tv on the weekends. He had the beer and I had a cream soda. Much better days than they are today. Today's baseball sucks along with all of their worthless commercials every few seconds both on TV and Radio.

    If your grandparents were part of the “Greatest Generation”, and they played their 78’s for you, and you loved it, you’ll appreciate having this video play in the background when you’re doing anything around the house.

    I'm not even American but I'm enjoying these ads very much. Like a window to see how life was lived at this bygone era.
  • @edgein3299
    Watching these commercials wants me to go back in time and see what they really taste like.
  • I'd say you have an alcohol problem if your waking up to sneak a beer in the middle of the night.
  • @rickgandy3583
    These are great old commercials... being raised in the 70s I remember most of them. Thanks for the work you've done here!
  • @tomlovejoy1534
    Lots n lots of Beer 🍺 brands back then..and my old man must've drank every one ever made! 😵‍💫
  • @litlgrey
    I'm loving the top grade film quality of these spots!
  • I grew up in late 50’s and all the 60’s. Remember the Hamms bear and schlitz commercials the most. I remember dad and uncle having to sneak beer from Kansas to Louisiana on vacation cause that particular brand (I think coors) wasn’t allowed in that area of United States (the big Budweiser, coors battles) as it was illegal contraband. Can you imagine that? Lol. We had to be careful at the lakes back then as there was always some jerk water who would throw their pull tabs into the water and brother they’d cut the crap out of your foot! The tire, car, beer and cigarette commercials back then were fascinating and fun to watch.

    I remember quite a few of these. Kind of gives away my age. Also, drank quite a few over the years.
