What Happened to the Beer Babes?

Rising (falling?) YouTube starlet Jill Hanner wonders what ever happened to those beer ads where the beer was decided on how hot the girl was? It’s a good question. Where have the Coors Twins gone? The Miller Lite Catfight girls? The St. Pauli Girl? Oh wait, she’s still around.

But, seriously, it’s like brewers pulled out and took a vow of abstinence or something. When was the last time beers and babes were in the same frame? Maybe it’s a good thing since studies keep saying sex doesn’t sell. And damn, a troll through the Adrants archives reveals we’ve trashed the tactic as well.

Or maybe it’s just the normal course of things. After all, everyone needs a bit of a break between bouts.
