Advertising Age's Top Brands of the Year

A very diverse list of brands that have done quite well this year. I have heard-of and experienced most of them.  While I may not be a fan of all these brands, its difficult to argue their success.  Stand outs for me include:

1. Pabst Blue Ribbon(for sale!)
2. Tesla Motors
3. Jameson
4. and of course Snuggie

Read the full list on AdAge here, then come back and let me know your thoughts and favorite brands from the list.  Do you have some favorite local brands? Sound off in the comments.
