my all time favorite beer. And thats because I liked these commercials as a kid. its hard to find Hamms beer now. Rite aid still sells it. great video!
AAAHHH yes..I agree with the previous comment...Those lazy saturday afternoons.. if not playing Ball..ya know.... that outside game we used to do....Dad , Unk, Cousins and we loved the Hamms commericials....You know before the Days of all the warnings and eveything that was bad for you...Come to think about it ,,my Dads generation is the Greatest Generation ever....Thanks for the Memories!!
Wonderful animation and check out the opening and closing...beautifully done landscape created for a "beer" commercial. We kids were lucky when we had adults creating art for us back then...now we have people with little sophistication and imagination who don't read and just text.
This is so surreal to me, my grandpa wrote the jingle for this commercial. It's brought up every so often in the family. I actually didn't know the jingle till after he died and realized it was his claim to fame. Awesome.
I loved that logging bear when I was a kid. Back in the middle 1960's in Detroit, my dad worked afternoons, and when he got home, he'd watch TV with me on Friday nights; and when the sports came on the news, it was always sponsored by Hamm's Beer.
Amazing what long attention spans we had back then. I realize that informercials now run a half-hour or more, but back when this commercial aired, most commercials ran a minute (or longer -- as is the case here), rather than the 15 seconds or less common now. And yes, the jingle is to die for. The beer's not bad, either, or at least it wasn't back in the 80s when we did a blind taste test and Hamms won. Gorgeous black and white photography...
