The Super Bowl isn’t just about the game—it’s also a showcase for some of the most unforgettable commercials in history.

But when it comes to the best beer commercials, it’s the majors like Anheuser-Busch and Molson Coors that have delivered the most memorable funny, emotional, and iconic ads.

And here (drum roll please…) are the 10 best Super Bowl beer commercials of all time.

Budweiser’s “Whassup?” (2000)

A simple yet hilarious concept—friends greeting each other with a stretched-out “Whassup?”—became a worldwide phenomenon. It’s one of the most recognizable beer ads in history.

Budweiser’s “Frogs” (1995)

One of the weirdest but most memorable beer commercials. Three frogs—Bud, Weis, and Er—croak their names in a swamp, creating an oddly satisfying and truly unforgettable ad.

Bud Light’s “Magic Fridge” (2006)

A clever and funny commercial featuring a disappearing beer fridge that rotates into another room—only for some unsuspecting friends to find it. Pure Super Bowl comedy gold.

Budweiser’s Clydesdales “Respect” (2002)

In the aftermath of 9/11, Budweiser aired a deeply touching tribute featuring their famous Clydesdales bowing before the New York City skyline. The commercial aired only once, during Super Bowl XXXVI, and is understandably still remembered for its emotional impact. A powerful and heartfelt moment.

Old Milwaukee – Will Ferrell Super Bowl Ad (2012)

In an unexpected twist, Will Ferrell starred in this deliberately low-budget Super Bowl commercial for Old Milwaukee that aired only in select local markets. The bizarre and humorous ad featured Ferrell enjoying an Old Milwaukee in slow motion, adding to its quirky charm.

Budweiser’s “Lost Dog” (2015)

One of the most touching and emotional Super Bowl beer ads ever made. A puppy gets lost and is saved by Budweiser’s iconic Clydesdales, set to the song “I’m Gonna Be (500 Miles).”

Bud Light’s “Dilly Dilly” (2017-2018)

A medieval-themed ad that introduced the catchphrase “Dilly Dilly,” which quickly became a viral sensation. It was goofy, memorable, and pure Super Bowl fun.

Miller Lite’s “If You’re Holding a Miller Lite” (2019)

Tapping into the future of social media and these cell phones we can’t live without, “If You’re Holding a Miller Lite” was a  clever fourth-wall-breaking ad that told viewers holding a Miller Lite to put their phone down and enjoy the game.

Coors Light’s “Beer Run” (2021)

This brilliant Super Bowl commercial took a high-energy, cinematic approach, showing a group of friends going on an intense mission to grab a case of Coors Light before kickoff. A total blast!

Budweiser’s “Super Bowl LV Clydesdales” (2021)

Budweiser temporarily sat out of the Super Bowl in 2021, but their heartfelt Clydesdale ad still aired online—bringing nostalgia and tradition to fans who missed the iconic horses.
