| LILvoyce's Full Review: Miller High Life 2403b |
This is my first and probably last beer review... Hope you enjoy!
I have never been fond of beer. We have relatives that are from out of the country that love to come and stay with us. When they do, they always have to stop at the grocery store to get a pack of Miller High Life. This time Uncle Alberto had my brother take him to Winn Dixie. They were out of the bottles so he ended up purchasing the Miller High Life in the 16 oz cans. As always, Uncle Al drinks one or two beers a night, and never drives while drinking.
He likes to drink Miller when he is here. He tells me that he just loves the American Beer.
Uncle Al does not really know much English, other than to say, "American Beer Good, have some!" Trying to explain to an 82 year old man who doesn't speak English that I don't really care for beer was like talking to a brick wall. He sat a tall 16 oz can in front of me. He grinned and said, "American Beer good for you!"
My Experience
I got out Granny's beer glasses and did it right. We toast to everything when Uncle Al is here. We toasted to my Grandmother who has recently passed on. I took my first sip. My first reaction was a very pleasant one. Miller High Life, to me tasted very mild and with not to much carbonation. It went down very smooth, and did not hit the gullet hard. It was very surprising since I have not drank a beer in over 5 or 6 years. The last time I drank a beer, it went down a bit harsh, and I had a very hard time finishing my beer.
If your not much of a beer drinker, but want to be social, I would highly recommend this beer. My husband was surprised to see that after about an hour, I had finished a whole 16 oz can. I was surprised too, because to be honest with you, I really hate the taste of beer. My beer started to get warm, but I did not mind because of the lightness in taste. Normally I can't drink a beer that starts to get warm, to me they taste horrid.
I am not sure that this would be a great beer for someone that drinks a lot of beer. This beer might seem a bit weak for some, but for me was right on the money.
Pricing
Speaking of money. I must say that this beer seems to be one of the lesser expensive brands I have seen. I was so surprised by the taste, and could not believe that a 4-16oz pack only cost $2.69 here in Florida.
Description
Miller High Life is light yellow in color, with a very light tastes as well as smell. The outside of the the 16 oz aluminum can is gold with with the name Miller High Life, and the the slogan, "The Champagne of Beers." Miller High Life comes from the Miller Brewing Company, in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
If you have any questions about this product, Miller has a phone number printed right on the can: "1800-MILLER 6." Miller claims that this product,"Contains no additives or preservatives, and is a UNION made beer."
Warnings on Can
As with all alcohol, it should be consumed only by a responsible adult.
On the can it says, "Government Warning: (1)According to the surgeon general, women should not drink alcoholic beverages during pregnancy because of the risk of birth defects. (2) Consumption of alcoholic Beverages impairs your ability to drive a car or operate machinery and may cause health problems.
Overall
I this is a good beer, but would probably not purchase any more, until the next time Uncle Al is here. In which I do not mind having a sip or two. Until next time....
Lil says, "DON'T DRINK AND DRIVE."
