The first Lucky Lager brewery was established by the General Brewing Corporation of San Francisco on August 31, 1933. Lucky lager was produced for decades in various locations long after the original San Francisco brewery closed up in 1978, though their California roots could still be found in their slogans, including the "It's Lucky When You Live in California" that was a common sight throughout the golden state on billboards. This design is based on their 1970s logomark which is quite similar to that of another west coast favorite, Rainier Beer, not just in it's red and gold color, but it's stylized, oversized 'L' and overall layout.

Elsinore is the fictional brand of beer that the 1983 Canadian comedy movie Strange Brew is centered around. The story focuses on two unemployed brothers, Bob and Doug McKenzie, who place a live mouse in a beer bottle in an attempt to blackmail the local beer store into giving them free Elsinore beer, but are told to take up the matter with management at the Elsinore brewery. Their plan doesn't quite work out as instead of getting free beer, the brothers are given jobs on the bottling line inspecting bottles for mice which is almost as good, right? Needless to say, hijinks ensue and make this ridiculous movie into the cult classic that it is.

Drewrys was a brand of Canadian beer established in Winnipeg, Manitoba, in 1877, but was actually brewed for much of its history in South Bend, Indiana. Besides its Canadian connection and the famous Mountie and his trusty horse on its labels, the main Drewrys claims to fame were that the beer was "more flavor; less filling; more fun!" This was years before the popularity of light beers came to pass and many ads proved how light their beer was by demonstrating how Drewrys would float in a tub of ice water as the competitor's beers sank to the bottom.

The Iroquois Brewery was successor to the Jacob Roos Brewery, originally founded in 1842. Much of the Iroquois advertising that appeared after prohibition cites this 1842 date as the brewery's founding. The brewery was located between Hickory and Pratt Streets in Buffalo, N.Y. It was operated by Jacob Roos and, after his death, by George Roos, until 1892, when it was sold to Leonard Burgwerger. Burgwerger razed the buildings and built a new brewery on the site. This was the start of the Iroquois Brewing Company. Iroquois survived prohibition by brewing soda and near beer, and reopened shortly after prohibition ended in April 1933. Iroquois grew and prospered after prohibition and became the largest brewer in Buffalo.
