Miller Lite is giving away 50,000 free beers on International Beer Day
The beer brand will also host a special New Year's Eve-style "Beer Drop" at the Miller Lite Brewery in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Fans age 21 or older but unable to make it to any of the listed bars can still participate through an online alternative, the company said.
"The 50th anniversary is just more than a milestone for Miller Lite, it's a celebration of our fans and the five decades we've spent together enjoying Miller Time," Ann Legan, Vice President of Marketing for Miller family of brands, said in a news release.
There is a one free can limit per person, a Miller Lite representative clarified with USA TODAY.
The company kicked off its 50th year celebration by releasing limited-edition gold cans earlier this summer and unveiling a partnership with "Saturday Night Live" star Marcello Hernandez.

Details on International Beer Day
The start of International Beer Day can be traced back to 2007 and was the brainchild of four friends who, according to InternationalBeerDay.com, started the day as a "celebration of beer and the people who provide it". According to the website, the celebration happens each year on the first Friday in August.
International Beer Day is separate from National Beer Day, which is held annually in April to mark the first legal sale of alcohol since Prohibition began in 1920.

Jessica Biel Shares The Food She Won't Give To Her Kids, And People Aren't Lovin' It
Jessica Biel opened up about the one fast food she won't allow in her house, and we bet her kids aren't lovin' it. 'The Sinner' actor, who shares two sons with husband Justin Timberlake, told Parade in a new interview that McDonald's is totally off limits when she's in charge. 'I'm like, 'Sorry, guys, I'm not doing it.' They don't get McDonald's,' Biel said, before explaining her reasoning. 'I just feel like I don't know what's going on with [the] quality of that food. It's stuff like that that I'm like, 'No, we're not,'' she said. 'Let's go have a great burger and fries at a fancy place. I'd rather pay more for you to have something fancy than something like that.' She adds: 'I guess I'm not crazy, rigid and strict, but that would be something that, if they asked me for, I would just be like, 'Next! Next place. Next down the line!'' While Biel's take is controversial among parents, it's also slightly funny, as Timberlake is famously behind one of McDonald's most famous jingles: 2003's 'I'm lovin' it' campaign. Timberlake reportedly made around $6 million for his part in the jingle, though he would later tell British GQ in 2007 he regretted the deal. Related...

James Gunn Reveals the DC Character Kevin Feige Told Him He Wants to See in a Movie — GeekTyrant
In the ever-entwined worlds of Marvel and DC, it's not every day that Marvel Studios boss Kevin Feige publicly roots for a character from the rival camp. But that's exactly what happened recently. While we now live in the timeline where James Gunn is shaping the new DCU, the Guardians of the Galaxy director revealed in an interview with Entertainment Weekly that his longtime Marvel collaborator had a strong opinion on who he'd love to see show up in a sequel to Superman. The name Feige dropped was None other than, Bizarro. Gunn said: "It's funny, [Marvel Studios President] Kevin Feige wrote me yesterday, He says he hopes his old pal Bizarro... [Laughs] He wants to see Bizarro." With how Superman ends, Feige clearly saw the seeds being planted just like the rest of us. We already saw hints of duality in David Corenswet's performance, playing both Superman and his twisted clone Ultraman. While Gunn hasn't confirmed that Ultraman will evolve into Bizarro, the clues are definitely there for fans paying close attention. Gunn teased some deeper layers that were originally planned for Ultraman's portrayal, even noting a scrapped element that leaned further into the tragic figure trope. he said: "There used to be some sadder stuff in there at some point that I got from the script that I really liked. I didn't have time for everything. … I don't know if you got prosthetics on [as Ultraman]. 'He's got a chin that's jutting out, his ears poke out, he's got one eye kind of going in a little direction. [Luthor] took him out of the oven a little too quickly or something." That paints a picture of a flawed creation, which lines up beautifully with the classic Bizarro archetype: a well-meaning but broken mirror image of Superman, misunderstood and manipulated. There's emotional depth just waiting to be mined here in the DCU, and with Gunn's love for offbeat, "freakish" characters, Bizarro feels like the perfect fit for his storytelling sensibilities. While the DCU Chapter 1: Gods and Monsters lineup already includes Eric Frankenstein and the Creature Commandos , the idea of exploring Bizarro's painful identity crisis through Superman's lens could take the emotional stakes even higher. We're not saying Ultraman will become Bizarro. But if he does, it would be an interesting move. It sets up an arc of identity, empathy, and what it means to be "defective" in a world that glorifies perfection. You can bet Clark Kent would be the one to face that conflict head-on. So yeah, Feige wants Bizarro in the DCU, and honestly, who can blame him?
