Free Miller Lite For “Miller’s” Everywhere

Miller LiteWhat’s in a name? Free beer — if your name happens to be Miller.

Legal-drinking-age consumers with the first, middle or last name Miller will receive a gift card equivalent to the cost of a case of Miller Lite so they can enjoy a little Miller Time with their friends.

Consumers located in, or willing to travel to, any of nine cities hosting special “It’s Miller Time On Us” events across the country can show their legal state ID with their first, middle or last name of Miller to pick up their $25 It’s Miller Time gift card. “It’s Miller Time On Us” kicks off this week in Philadelphia and then continues in Charlotte, Las Vegas, Pittsburgh, Chicago, Cincinnati, Indianapolis, Milwaukee and Phoenix throughout June and July. Gift cards are limited to one per person and must be collected within the designated hours for the event.

“Miller Time is all about those moments when you’re hanging out with your real friends and enjoying the great taste of Miller Lite,” said Ryan Reis, senior director of marketing for Miller Lite. “Because Miller Time starts with Miller, we decided to give some Miller Lite to our namesakes to share with their friends. As the sixth most common last name in America*, we know there are a lot of Millers ready to celebrating Miller Time on us. And if you’re not a Miller, grab your friends who are and bring them to one of our events.”

“It’s Miller Time on Us” events are scheduled as follows (all times local):

  • Las Vegas – June 29, 1-5 p.m., poolside at The Palms
  • Charlotte – July 11, 5-8 p.m., EpiCentre
  • Milwaukee – July 13, 3-6 p.m., Miller Visitor Center
  • Cincinnati – July 17, 5-8 p.m., Holy Grail Tavern & Grille

To help ensure Miller Time is always the best beer experience, Miller Lite recently launched its newest innovation, the Punch Top Can. The Punch Top Can increases airflow, reducing glug and resulting in an improved, smoother pour that highlights the great pilsner taste of Miller Lite.
