Miller Genuine Draft:
Hello all and welcome to my little attempt to shed some light on the world of the beverage that is credited as to saving the civilized world or, as we know it, beer. Today we look to fill that area of the beer cabinet that is occupied by the mass produced domestic beers or as I like to call them, The Usual Suspects. So what do I bring to your attention today? Well today I bring to you Miller Genuine Draft or MGD, that black labeled beer that for some of us was the first actual beer we ever drank (yeah, not the most auspicious start to what I’m doing now, but we all have to start some where). MGD is a beer that was introduced in 1985 as a cold filtered, non-pasteurized version of their High Life beer with the intention to allow High Life drinkers to get the same taste profiles from bottle and cans (which are pasteurized) and the non-pasteurized kegs. So how does the beer taste? Well, like a High Life but with a noticeable after taste of sweetness that I don’t remember a High Life having. So when we look at from a distance, this beer is just alternative to a High Life and I bet you $5 that anyone who doesn’t know this history behind the beer will think these are two totally different beers with distinct tastes. Ah, the uninformed *Sigh* well till next time folks.
