Miller Lite -CHILL-

Desert_Sky · 04-04-2007, 05:25 PM

ok, Im going to go ahead and say....when this beer comes to a bar near you DONT EVEN BOTHER

Chelada Style. Yea ok whatever. They are going for a Mexican style here and adding the lime and salt for you. Remember Tequiza? Yea well this is just as bad. Imitation lime flavor followed by a salty aftertaste. Absolutely horrible, and I actually do enjoy a Miller Lite every now and then.

So for my public service anouncement of the day.....

DO NOT DRINK THIS BEER

Curse that beer and everything it stands for!!! We got a case of it at my bar, and I was determined to keep it hidden and buried away as long as it took to avoid selling it.

Well, one of the other managers finally got it out, iced down the whole thing, and put it on sale for $2/bottle, just to get rid of it. Coincidentally, the same night, a bunch of Miller Lite girls came in and did a promo for the ****. I was irritated, but figured it was good, because I hoped we could get rid of it all in one day. And we did, and it will never darken our doorstep again!

Thanks. I saw the Miller guy wheel in a stack of cases of that at my Costco liquor store. I had to go up and read the box. I wish I had a picture of my facial expression when I read it.

Hmm. Take a bottle of Miller Lite, add salt & lime and voilà, you've got a salty Miller Light with citric acid. I wonder how long before those cases get sent back to the distributor. Folks here in Austin enjoy DOS Equis, Corone, Tecate, etc with lime, but now the BMC folks are trying to muscle in. No way Jose!

I'll spend my money on DOS XX's any day over salty BMC.

It's a flash in the pan. It'll be popular for a few months while they promote the hell out of it, and then it will blissfully fade away after that, never to return. Can you tell I really hate it?

At least they figured out a way to hide that terrible Miller Lite taste.

I have been seeing michelada/chelada beverages appear on the menus of several local mex/latin establishments lately. Gotta at least give them credit for being on the upside of the curve rather than on the down swing. Around me, the cheladas haven't been super popular but seem to be gaining a small foothold.

Chelada Style....

Seriously go to Mexico, get a Pacifico and sit on the beach. Put a lime and a pinch of salt in and enjoy. Its really refreshing and very drinkable. Ive spent many many drunken afternoons in Puerto Penasco "Rocky Point" enjoying countless beers this way.

Miller Lite just f***ed it all up though

Down there you get Ballena Pacificos!!!!!!!!
