Melbourne Bitter ‘Now that’s what I call a beer’ Poster

$24.00 – $85.00

Before 1968 Carlton & United Breweries had a monopoly on beer served across the hotel bar in Victoria. That brand was Carlton Ale. With the entry of Courage Breweries a joint venture between local hoteliers, the British brewer Courage, Barclay & Simonds (it became Courage Ltd in 1970) and the British Tobacco Group put pressure on CUB to rethink their branding. So Carlton Ale was rebranded as Carlton Draught and the beer across the bar was made available as packaged beer.

As for the packaged beer they revamped all of their brands like Melbourne Bitter, Crown Lager, Abbots Lager, Victoria Bitter and Foster’s Lager. They used the Hawking Brothers for their Melbourne bitter beer ads. The Hawking Brothers, were an Australian Country Music band, formed in 1955 and disbanded in 1985.
