Miller 1855 Celebration Lager

Formerly brewed at Miller Brewing Company (MillerCoors)
Style: Pale Lager
Milwaukee, Wisconsin USA

I bought this beer to hav something different and it wasn’t a disappointment. It was by no means one of the better beers that I have had but it was also by no means one of the worst. It has a good bit more flavor than Miller Lite.

One of the better miller products. garnered almost a 2 rating from me! Fizzy, golden, adjuncts galore with a faint hop presence

A golden lager with a thick creamy white head, dissipating quickly. A lightly sulfured corn adjunct aroma. In mouth, a lightly sweet beer, crisp, with some decent german hops, not overly bad, but not memorable. Happy 150th b-day, you crooks! Bottle bought in Postdam, NY, Spring 2006. The rest goes into my ham pot for dinner.

Good sized fluffy white head. Light carbonation. Head reduces quickly. Aroma is typical of a pale lager. Corn, rice and a bit of skunky hops. Medium gold in color. Flavor is light and crisp and really not all that bad. I could actually drink some of these, as a replacment for water. Goes down real smooth and easy. Little bit of malts. Not much corn flavor which is a good thing. Some cardboard though. Finish is a little dry with minimal bitterness. Better that your average mass produced swill.

This was a beer that was produced to celebrate Millers 150th anniversary. I really liked the beer and was hoping that it would be made on a regular basis. It had good balance which made it very drinkable on a hot summer day.

12 oz bottle. A mini-swill fest I’ve got going on here. Pale golden/straw colour with a thin white head. Pale malt aroma but with some noticable fruitiness (especially coming from Miller). A bit of cherry but also some dirty off flavours. Flavour is of pale malt, grapes and cherries. Slightly vegetal and become moreso as it warms.

12oz bottle. pale yellow with small whitish head .A light hoppy aroma with slightly more flavor than a miller lite.

This was a good Macro beer. Maybe the old fashioned label played a trick on my brain but I thought it tasted better than The regular Miller products. That isn’t really saying much though.
