The 60-second spot, created by Anomaly, features a horse trainer reunited three years later with a ‘Budweiser Clydesdale’ horse he once breed.

A bottle of Budweiser is only featured once during the ad, although the trainer wears a branded baseball cap throughout.

Jake Scott, son of Ridley Scott, of RSA Films directed the ad.
