The Hamm's Beer bear was a cartoon bear used in television and print advertisements for Hamm's beer. Typically, the bear would dance around in a pastoral setting while the "Land of sky blue waters" jingle was sung in the background.
In 2000, the St. Paul Pioneer Press newspaper voted the Hamm's Beer bear a runner-up in its "150 most influential Minnesotans in the past 150 years" contest.
