The Budweiser Clydesdales 2013 Super Bowl Commercial: Advance Showing of the 2013 Commercial on the Hoof Blog

This year's Budweiser Clydesdale commercial is quite a story. "Brotherhood" shares the bond of a trainer and his favorite horse.

Spoiler alert!

Have you been chewing your nails (or hooves)? Are you worried you might be running to the refrigerator or bathroom on Sunday night when the annual Budweiser Clydesdale commercial comes on the Super Bowl?

Fear no more, here it is: (go ahead, watch it in full screen mode)





The ad is called "Brotherhood" and, yes, it's a fantasy--but you must be a serious cynic if there isn't a horse in your past that comes to mind when you watch it.

Well done, Budweiser!

PS Remember, Budweiser wants your suggestions for names for the newborn foal.

Read all about the foal and the competition to name him.
