Does Miller Lite having "Triple Hops" actually mean anything?
I see the commercial that Miller Lite has "triple hops". It doesn't mean they have triple the amount of hops, in fact they have the same amount or less than most US beers, but instead, they add the hops at 3 different intervals during brewing.
Question, is adding a bit of hops 3 times actually better than more hops added at one time? Who cares how many times it was added, it comes down to the total amount doesn't it? Any brewers out there who can help me out?
Miller Lite stating they add hops three times is just silly. That said, to answer your question, yes it makes a difference ... just not in Miller Lite.
Hops provides all of the bittering for a beer. This is important because without hops beer would be an obnoxiously sweet beverage. Brewers can add hops to the beer at different times and create different effects. Hops added at the beginning of the boil create bitterness. Hops added mid-boil (normally 30-45 minutes into the boil) can add some flavor. Hops added at the end of the boil add hop aroma.
All that said, for a beer like Miler Lite, there is very little hops added at any point. Our friends at Miller add just enough hops so that their beer isn't disgustingly sweet.
Anyway, to answer your question, yes the timing of the hop additions make a huge impact on the flavor of the beer. I just don't think that Miller's boast makes much sense. If they have late hop additions, it doesn't really add much flavor to the final product...

Home Brew $13.58 Sean Ardoin is definitely committed to expanding the bounds of zydeco music. His last album introduced hip-hop into the mix, but this time he's gone for a more rooted approach that also brings in more than a small dose of soul. He's lucky to have a great and flexible pair of musicians behind him, but he remains a more-than-talented accordion player and a singer of real quality, who can handle the chugging two-step of "Down in Louisiana" and the quiet storm stylings of "Love, All for You." Given that he's responsible for virtually all the songs here, there's also a formidable writer still developing here. If you want to hear what he can do with the basics of his music, listen to "Back Porch," as storming a piece of zydeco accordion work as you're likely to find since Clifton Chenier. And then go to the other extreme with "I'm Still Here," which seems to be influenced by '70s Steve Miller hits, reworked in a zydeco vein. And closing out with the joyous "Kemo Sabe" is a masterstroke that leaves the album in the memory -- an excellent mix of zydeco and soul, with great backing vocals too. On the basis of this and his last disc, it's certainly not too early to announce Sean Ardoin as a major talent. ~ Chris Nickson, Rovi Performers: Sean Ardoin - Accordion, Vocals, Drums; Chuck Bush - Guitar, Bass |

Is there a way to tell the Brew date of Miller High Life by the Expiration date on their beer?
I know Busch and Budweiser (same company) includes their "Born on" date, which I can tell a difference between beers that have been brewed a long time ago, as compared to freshly brewed beer... So, I know on Anheuser Busch brewed beers, how old they are... But, I do not know on other brands even though I would not mind buying other brands if I knew when they were brewed. The other brands have "Best if consumed by" and the like, on their bottles... It's basically an expiration date. Can you tell me on Miller beers, or otherwise, how far to back that up to know the brew date or the "Born On" date, per say? Thanks
The date on Miller products is a Do Not Sell date that indicates the last day retailers should sell the product. This date is 120 days from what would be the "born on date". So whatever that date is on the bottle, count back 4 months and you have a good ballpark of when it was "born".
