Budweiser Commercial Spot Tops USA Ad Meter Poll

“Brotherhood”, the 2013  Clydesdale commercial by Anheuser-Busch topped USA Today’s Ad Meter. The young foal growing up and leaving his trainer, only to be reunited at a parade in the future pulled a few heartstrings. Using the Twitter hashtag #Clydesdales, those interested can attempt to name the little guy, who was just 7 days old  this January when it was filmed.

Over 7,000 panelists help judge USA Today’s  Ad poll, now in its 25th year. #2 spot goes to Tide and the Joe Montana miracle stain. Only two other beers were advertised this year during the Super Bowl – Redd’s Apple Ale, and Beck’s Sapphire (after Budweiser Black Crown of course).

“Each year, the biggest breweries in the world spend ungodly amounts of money to convince consumers their brand is the best. Our brewers spend their time and money concerning themselves with producing incredibly flavorful beers that really don’t pair with Nachos and Chicken Wings.”

You gotta love beer drinking nuns.
