Miller Brewing



         




Miller Brewing is a large American beermaker based in Milwaukee. It was founded in 1855 by Frederick Miller when he purchased the small Plank-Road Brewery. The brewery's location in the Menomonee Valley provided easy access to raw materials produced on nearby farms.

It was acquired by South African Breweries from Philip Morris on May 30, 2002, to form SABMiller for $3.6 billion worth of stock and $2 billion in debt, with Philip Morris retaining a 36% share, with voting rights of 24.99%.

Its brands include Miller Genuine Draft and Miller Lite, which lag far behind Anheuser-Busch's leading brands.
