The National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum’s newly unveiled Schlitz Golden Goddess bobbleheads have been featured across a range of beer, lifestyle and culture publications, spotlighting the collectibles as a tribute to one of Milwaukee’s most iconic beer brands.
The officially licensed, limited-edition bobbleheads commemorate the final brewing of Schlitz, the legendary brand known as “The Beer That Made Milwaukee Famous.” Founded in Milwaukee in 1849, Schlitz was once America’s largest brewer and remains one of the most recognizable names in American beer history.
The bobbleheads feature the Schlitz Golden Goddess, a memorable figure from the brand’s mid-century advertising and the illuminated bar statues and lamps that became prized collectibles among beer fans. One design shows the Golden Goddess sitting on a world-globe beer tap, while the other shows her holding a globe with the Schlitz logo.
Coverage of the release appeared in Beer Connoisseur, Mantelligence, PorchDrinking, Celebrator and Incredible Things, with each publication highlighting the release from a different editorial perspective.
