'It’s time beer made it up to women': Miller Lite APOLOGIZES for using women in bikinis to sell beer after campaigns featuring Sofia Vergara, Meghan Markle and Pamela Anderson: New ad echoes woke Dylan Mulvaney controversy

Miller Lite has apologized for its history of advertisements featuring women in bikinis with a woke commercial.

In the one minute and 30 second spot posted online, comedian Ilana Glazer says 'It's time beer made it up for women,' as she touted women's role in the brewing process — going all the way back to early civilization.

She explained in the commercial that Miller Lite created a campaign for Women's History Month in March to buy up old marketing materials to turn them into compost, which could be used to make fertilizer.

That fertilizer would then be donated to female hops farmers, and the hops grown from the recycled materials would be sent to female brewers.

The 'Bad $#!T to Good $#!T' campaign came ahead of its rival Bud Light's disastrous Dylan Mulvaney ad, featuring the transgender TikTok star drinking out of a beer can with her face on it.

The company has since lost more than $6million in market capitalization, and a marketing executive criticized Bud Light for losing touch of its audience.

Now, some are saying the same about Miller Lite.

‘There’s no need to be harpies about it.’

what’s the point of certain women’s lives if being a harpy is off the table...?

‘I very much enjoyed my unwoke, US-brewed and owned Yuengling lights this evening.’

meh; Yuengling Light is still a typical lite brew; very dissappointing...

"Yuengling is the oldest brewery in the United States.
Own and operated by the same family since 1830. I drank a Yuengling Original Amber about an hour ago. My favorite beer.

With all of the vulgarity in it,I doubt that this is an actual Miller Lite advertisement intended for airing.   I did notice it didn't have a transgender little girl fetishist though.

OK

Use naked women to sell your beer.

Good looking ones.

I do. The left has taken the fun, especially the harmless fun, out of everything.

“Hey woman, bring me another beer and then make me a sandwich”.

I just remembered that my son had that poster on the wall of his off campus apartment.

He had two roommates- a girl and a high school friend. The girl was very very attractive. My son and his high school friend used to call her "Mom." I remember talking to her about her joining a sorority. She said she had to join because she was living in a frat house. I asked her why she was living with 2 men. She said it was an easy decision: 1) she did not have to put up with drama; 2) they gave her the best bedroom; and 3) whenever some guy would not take no for an answer she would call my son or his high school friend and they would immediately drop what they were doing and "show-up." Both my son and his friend were gym rats.

In fairness to Miller, I don’t think the commercial ever made it to TV. I’m guessing someone at Miller knows who buys its beer.

Not sure if this is true but, saw a comment on another forum that said this was an Only Fans video disguised as a commercial. Time will tell. If it is Miller better get on it quick....:O)

There's even a Yingers Light for those who prefer such things.

I prefer their Black & Tan ...

I use to love watching Benny Hill on TV when I was younger. His facial expression were hilarious. The little old guy use to crack me up too. I don’t think a Benny Hill could survive in the current environment.

They are clearly selling something other than beer.
