In honor of International Beer Day and its 50th anniversary, Miller Lite is serving up 50,000 free beers at select bars nationwide, including multiple locations in Philadelphia. Local watering holes such as Bonner's Irish Pub, Drinker's Pub, and Locust Rendezvous will be partaking in this "national toast" from 4:50 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. on Friday, per reporting by 6abc.
Furthermore, a total of 450 bars across the U.S. are participating in the giveaway, according to Economic Times. Patrons can find the nearest bar offering complimentary Miller Lite on Friday, August 1, by visiting the company's website. "The 50th anniversary is just more than a milestone for Miller Lite, it's a celebration of our fans and the five decades we've spent together enjoying Miller Time," Ann Legan, Vice President of Marketing for the Miller family of brands, said in a news release.
Those looking to score a free beer will have to act within the window of 4:50 — 7:00 p.m. local time. The full list of establishments where beer enthusiasts can grab their freebie is accessible through Miller Lite's dedicated webpage for the promotion, a detail shared by Today.
The festivities do not end at free beers in local bars. Miller Lite's Brewery in Milwaukee has concocted a unique "beer drop" event, taking place during the same time frame as the bar giveaways. The event, livestreamed on Miller Lite's YouTube and Instagram channels, will feature a massive six-pack with each can representing a different U.S. time zone, beginning to drop in succession, similar to the New Year’s Eve ball drop. For those who can't make it to the bars or Milwaukee, the virtual event offers an alternative way to join in on the celebration. This detail, according to Today.
