An American Classic: Miller Brewing

Miller Brewing

If you are talking about great American beer manufacturers, then you have to mention Miller Brewing in your list. Miller is an American icon when it comes to beer brewing manufacturers. It is based in Milwaukee, Wisconsin and has been around for over a hundred and fifty years. There is a pretty good chance that you have tested their beer brewing system sometime in your life. Miller produces a wide variety of beers and is found all over the United States. If you live anywhere close to Milwaukee, then you need to make it a point to learn all you can about this iconic beer manufacturer.

Back in 1855, Frederick Miller began his legacy by purchasing a small brewing company called Plank-Road Brewery and then he changed the name to the Miller Brewing Company. After his death, the company passed to his daughter. Unfortunately, she did not approve of the use of alcohol and sold Miller to W.R. Grace & Company. Over the years the company has thrived and grown. Recently, Miller merged with Molson Coors to become Miller Coors.

Miller’s process of all grain brewing is very much like other beer brewing companies. They produce lagers, pale lagers and light beers. Even though it has the same process as competitor Bud Light, there is still a difference in the techniques that are employed. Bud Light fans will definitely tell you that Miler Light is not the same thing. Everyone has a personal preference in how their beers should taste. There are types of beer that Miller does not offer, such as a pilsner or a stout. To find those you may have to turn to a different beer maker and a different region of the world for your particular tastes. Miller is not an imported brand and while it may be a household name, it does have its limitations.
