Social-media users are now calling for a boycott of Miller Lite over what they describe as a "woke" advert. It follows a backlash against Bud Light over a partnership with a transgender influencer. The commercial at the center of the outrage discusses the historical role that women played in beer brewing.

Miller Lite's long-running "Tastes Great!... Less Filling!" advertising campaign was ranked by Advertising Age magazine as the eighth best advertising campaign in history.

What is Miller Lite? It's a beer made for the calorie conscious, and those who don't like the taste of stronger beers. I'ts my go to of choice. The light beers are less in calories but tend to have less flavor that their full bodied counterparts.

The Miller Brewing Company was founded in the 1850s by a German immigrant to the US, Frederick Miller. Miller High Life, its oldest brand, was launched as its flagship in 1903.

Miller Lite Beer is the original light lager beer. With a smooth, light and refreshing taste, this American-style pilsner beer has 4.2% ABV. Brewed for more taste, this light beer has a light to medium body with a hop-forward flavor, solid malt character, and a clean finish.

Light beers also showed prevalence across the country, suggesting a movement towards lower alcohol offerings. Bud Light ranked first in Washington, Vermont, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, and Connecticut. Miller Light was the most popular beer in two states too: Indiana and New Jersey.

MillerCoors LLC is reviving its "Great taste, less filling" tagline, which was created more than 30 years ago. The company, a newly formed joint venture between SABMiller's U.S. unit and Denver-based Molson Coors Brewing Co., told distributors in a letter Tuesday the campaign is back.

"Miller Lite has been an iconic brand since 1975 for good reason. It's remained true to itself while other light beers have diluted what they're all about. We know there's a practical side to why people love Miller Lite, and that's because it's a light beer that embraces the taste of beer.

Chaucer describes the Miller in a particularly blunt fashion. The Miller is an exceedingly large man: "Ful byg he was of brawn, and eek of bones" (Line 546.) The first characteristic Chaucer ascribes to the Miller is his physical strength, saying that he would be capable of easily tearing a door off of its hinges.
