Miller Christmas Beer

M2010.020.162
Date Unknown

Miller Label, Christmas Special Beer, 12 fl oz. The label has a scene of a family Christmas on front with a father, mother, and a child next to the Christmas tree. “Miller” in white along top and the trademark on upper right window. “Christmas Special Beer” in red in center right. The label is bordered in green with the brewery information found along the bottom.

Christmas beer, traditionally known in England as Yule Ale, has its origins in Scandinavia. Every year for the holidays a spiced and stronger than usual beer would be brewed. This tradition carried on in America with special holiday drinks produced by the large breweries, including Miller.
