This fascinating silent film, made in 1937 (?) has people talking first talking about how damn good the beeeer is that they've had. Heck one person comments, through his rolling comments, how healthy it is. We then turn to the manufacture of beeeer. And what a manufacure it is, although this looks almost simplified, it is nevertheless fascinating to watch the beer being made and canned (or bottled). Then in an attempt to persuade the store managers to... BUY MORE BEER! We then get cheap visual effects to try to hypnotise us into buying more beeeeer...
