CHICAGO, March 7, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- There's no beer without women. In fact, women were among the first beer brewers in history. Yet for the years that followed, many in the beer industry (Miller Lite included) alienated the very people who helped create it. How? By dividing women as consumers, objectifying them in their ads, and frankly, putting a lot of bad $#!T out there.

Key Points: 
  • Today, Miller Lite is announcing Bad $#!T to Good $#!T, an initiative creating fertilizer made from old sexist beer advertising that will be used to grow hops for female brewers.
  • They're turning the age-old, objectifying beer ads (aka bad $#!T) into good $#!T - literally.
  • "This Women's History Month, Miller Lite wanted to recognize that without women, there would be no beer," said Elizabeth Hitch, senior director of marketing for Miller Lite.
  • Turning bad $#!T into good $#!T is no easy task, but Miller Lite is committed to their mission.
