Recently, as in yesterday, I decided to embark on something few people (well, probably thousands) have this summer: Miller Chill “Chelada Style”. I went to my local Kroghetto on 7th and High and walked into the beer aisle. I find the 12 packs of bottles to be priced at $13 each, which happens to be what is in my wallet.

I get back to my apartment and like a kid on Christmas, open my bounty. The bottle tops are twist-off, but what kind of fun is that? I use a bottle opener anyway. A couple of friends come over and we play some video games and watch some TV. It’s Monday, not too much stuff going on.

As I get deep into the 12-pack, I’m not that impressed. It tastes much like Rolling Rock. In fact, I wouldn’t be able to tell the difference in a blind taste test. But unlike Rolling Rock, the label is made of a paper-like material that gets mushy with condensation (Definitely losing points for that one).

Considering Miller is pushing this product as its new sensation, this is a major letdown. I’d rather save money and drink Natural Light. And given the choice between Rolling Rock and Miller Chill: pass the Rock.
