H.R. No. 1280 is a resolution recognizing the Molson Coors Fort Worth Brewery as it celebrates the 50th anniversary of Miller Lite in 2025. The resolution highlights the brewery's significant contributions to the beer industry, particularly its role in brewing and packaging the first Miller Lite pilsner in 1975, which became the first light beer to achieve widespread success in the United States. The brewery, which opened in 1969, is noted for being the longest-operating brewery in the Dallas-Fort Worth area and one of the largest in the nation, producing 8.2 million barrels annually across 72 different brands.
The resolution expresses the Texas House of Representatives' appreciation for the brewery's impact on the economy of Texas and its legacy in reshaping the American beer industry through innovative advertising and celebrity endorsements. It extends best wishes for continued success to all associated with the brewery and calls for an official copy of the resolution to be prepared as a token of high regard from the Texas House.
