Seems pretty stupid to me. The liquor drinkers I know don't like beer and aren't going to switch. Just like liquor ads aren't going to turn me from a beer drinker to a liquor drinker.from article said:The new brews are meant to respond to the drinking patterns of so-called millennials, who have upended the beer industry by liking and buying distilled spirits more than their older siblings.
I saw the commercial last night, and thought I saw that it was 7.9% is that correct?
Yeah its like one of those bogus claims you often see in food adverts like when random **** *contains no HFCS* Like breakfast cereal or peanut butter. I used to work stocking shelves and we would see **** like this all the time. Its like putting *does not contain potassium cyanide* on a jar of jelly. "Oh look honey, this jelly wont kill us. We should probably buy it." lol These guys will go to any lengths to sell their swill.
Some of you guys are getting too worked up about this. It's advertising. They need to do this kind of thing in order to compete with the other big breweries. All the big players in any industry do the same thing. Anyone who knows more than the average consumer about whatever product is being marketed can see right through it. Miller isn't targeting this sales campaign toward us. They know we don't drink their products anyhow. They're targeting the vast, vast majority of their customers, which are nonbrewers that don't have a clue that beer isn't distilled.
I plan to give this a try. I think it's pretty cool that they're trying something new, even if the ad campaign is a bit obnoxious.

Iv tried wrapping my head around the triple hopped thing. Ate they saying there are three hop additions or three types of hops
Are you kidding me? The issue is them saying **** that is blatantly untrue. You don't distill beer. Period.
I suppose if I had a volume of Miller I might distill it to put in my lawnmower. Haha!
Bunch of lying pos a holes selling crap to the mass of morons we now proudly call the United states of America. I'm starting to feel more proud of our history than our present. It's not the government. It is the complete idiocy of the public. The idea that this marketing ploy could work disgusts me.
This country used to stand for something. now we are the least productive and stupid society on the planet. Anybody remember the Romans and what ended them?

Yep.It seemed to me, and I may have misinterpreted it, that they are trying to get hard liquor drinkers to drink their beer with that undistilled comment?
from article said:After an off-hand line in this Bloomberg feature that said the beer's taste profile hinted at bourbon, many publications began posting things about Miller's new bourbon-flavored lager. Some made it sound as if the product was artificially flavored, which it simply isn't. Others showed a basic lack of understanding about beer, such as Time Magazine, which said Miller Fortune is brewed with Cascade hops to give it its bourbon-like flavor.
