Little Brown Jug is a 1948 Screen Songs cartoon. It is an animated short about various woodland creatures milling and drinking apple cider. Includes a sing-a-long of the title song.
Summary[]
All the animals help in the production of cider at Ye Olde Cider Mill, but they produce so much cider that the kegs burst open, spilling the cider into a nearby stream. Spot gags show various animals drinking from the stream and getting drunk! (Mothers Against Drunk Driving would have a field day with this cartoon today!)
Plot[]
A cartoon in the Paramount audience-participation, follow-the-bouncing-ball sing-along series (Paramount number X7-3)in which it shows that blowing the apples off a tree with an electric fan works so well that the old cider mill breaks down from an overload, and the cider in the old-mill stream has an odd effect on all the animals in the vicinity. A cow gives 100-proof milk and a fisherman's hook catches fish by their tail.
