Now that Miller is suing Bud, it’s a good time to stop drinking both

It all started at the Super Bowl, where a Bud Light commercial roasted Miller Lite and Coors Light for using corn syrup in their beer. In the one-minute clip, a king and his buds travel across land and sea to deliver a shipment of corn syrup to the Coors Light castle.

“Well, well, well,” says the Coors king as they arrive. “Looks like the corn syrup has come home to be brewed. To be clear, we brew Coors Light with corn syrup!”

Not subtle, but funny.

Now parent company MillerCoors can take the joke no longer. On Thursday it sued Anheuser-Busch for the ad because it claims it doesn’t have corn syrup in its beer. Yes, it brews with corn syrup, but the syrup ferments out to become alcohol before the product hits the shelves.

Long before MillerCoors reached its tipping point, Bud’s ad had already ticked off the corn lobby. After it first aired, the National Corn Growers Association tweeted that “America’s corn farmers are disappointed” in the company.

Yep, as this silliness unfolds, local tasty craft beers continue to plunder market share from these idiots like PacMan.

Ice cold with a touch of lemon, one of my favorite summertime refreshments.
