Miller Lite is the original light beer. Introduced in 1975, Miller Lite was brewed to be a great tasting beer that just happened to be light, not some lesser version of a full-calorie beer. While many other light beers have been developed over the years, Miller Lite remains the original, always upholding Miller’s commitment to “quality uncompromising and unchanging.” The Miller Lite recipe uses a unique blend of choice Saaz and Pacific Northwest hops and a significant amount of caramel malt. In addition, we are still proud to use the same strain of brewer’s yeast that Frederick Miller brought with him from Germany in the 1850’s. Our beer continues to be purposefully brewed for more taste, aroma, and golden color than other light beers, with just 96 calories. 

TASTE: When tasting a beer, focus on the initial flavors as well as how the beer tastes and feels after you swallow. Miller Lite has a hop forward flavor and solid malt character with soft bitterness. It's smooth with a light to medium body, and has a crispy, clean, dry finish. 

AROMA: Aroma is about 80% of what we perceive as flavor. The main aroma in this style of beer comes from the malt and hops used. Miller Lite delivers a medium malt and hop aroma, with low fruit and ester notes.
