In other news "Miller High Life sells 2000 cans of beer to people who otherwise wouldn't have bought their beer. Marketing team gets a bonus" 
I don't see anything wrong with that.
I doubt customs had to pay for the beers first.In other news "Miller High Life sells 2000 cans of beer to people who otherwise wouldn't have bought their beer. Marketing team gets a bonus"
It's a European rule, and prevents things calling themselves things they aren't. We have some "CHampagne-style" beers in Belgium which are, you know, brewed/bottled/etc according to Champagne traditions. Miller High Life is....Not that.
party pooper.
The Jokekiller strikes again!
"The champagne of beers" isn't even a statement of what it is. It's a simile, it's not claiming to be champagne or even champagne style, in the same way that "chicken of the sea" is not claiming to be chicken (it's a brand of tuna)

Yes, and a simile has to hold up. There are actual "champagne of beer"s out there using Champagne techniques and so on, which this doesn't.
If I claim my beer is the Rolls Royce of beers, and it's a high-class luxury beer, that might fly. Claiming that while it's Bud Light won't.
I don't make the laws.
I mean, there's a record number of women refusing to get married or settling, so I'm guess those gamer dudes are self-sufficient.
No no, they still want the
They just don't want to actually make themselves appealing as partners in any way, 'cuz thinking of another person is hard! They'll just go online and say fucked up misogynist things instead.
American advertising cases have a 'puffery' defense that was established back in English common law. Basically, if a court determines that a claim is obviously bullshit that no one would believe as fact, or if the statement is scientifically unmeasureable, or obvious opinion, it doesn't have to be strictly true. Everyone can say their stuff is the "best" in general terms, because it's a matter of opinion. And, at least in the USA, Nobody would believe that Miller Light is the "champagne of beers"..it falls into the "obvious bullshit marketing exaggeration" category.
Though, you know, there's a bit of a gamble using this kind of language. Red Bull recently settled a lawsuit against its "Red Bull gives you wings" slogan.

And conversely, Japanese law says that if someone makes a public claim that damages your reputation, they are liable to you for damages, even if that claim is true/factual. Some crazy shit out there.
I’ll concede that I didnt know champagne beer was a thing. There is virtually 0 knowledge of that in the US, just the sparkling wine.
We had Saison DuPont at our wedding. Specifically because it was a beer-themed wedding, but y'know, Champagne.
