Yet another beer brand is facing accusations it has gone “woke” over one of its ads.
On Monday, the Citizen Free Press shared an ad by Miller Lite on Twitter and wrote, “Miller Lite has joined the woke cult.”
But has it?
The ad, which was released in March to celebrate Women’s History Month, starts with comedian Ilana Glazer stating, “Here’s a little-known fact, women were among the very first to brew beer ever.”
“Centuries later, how did the industry pay homage to the founding mothers of beer? They put us in bikinis,” she continued, adding, “Wow!”
Glazer then disposed of an ad featuring bikini-clad women.
“It’s time beer made it up to women. So today, Miller Lite is on a mission to clean up not just their sh*t, but the whole industry’s sh*t,” she added.
Watch the video below:
The ad then focused on empowering female brewers.
It concludes with Glazer saying, “Here’s to women, because without us, there would be no beer.”
While the ad has been out for a while, conservatives did not hesitate when it came to labeling Miller Lite “woke.” After the Bud light incident, it seems their radar for “woke” companies is up, and they lept into action.
