SENATE RESOLUTION NO. 256
|
|
|
WHEREAS, The MillerCoors Fort Worth Brewery is commemorating |
|
|
its 45th anniversary on February 25, 2015, and this significant |
|
|
milestone is indeed deserving of special recognition; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, The then Miller Brewing Company celebrated the |
|
|
opening of this facility with a German-style spirit of |
|
|
Gemütlichkeit, with company president Charles Miller handing out |
|
|
to attendees the first bottles of Miller High Life to roll off the |
|
|
production line; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, A few years later, the brewery became the first in |
|
|
the country to distribute the popular Miller Lite pilsner, and in |
|
|
1990 it added Miller Genuine Draft to its lineup; today, a staff |
|
|
of some 650 employees takes pride in crafting a variety of beers |
|
|
at the plant, whose annual production capacity has grown to nine |
|
|
million barrels; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, The MillerCoors Fort Worth Brewery stands at the |
|
|
forefront of sustainable business practices within the industry, |
|
|
utilizing a number of innovative water and energy conservation |
|
|
techniques while continuing to produce the high-quality |
|
|
beverages that its customers desire; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Throughout the past four and a half decades, the |
|
|
MillerCoors Fort Worth Brewery has made a substantial |
|
|
contribution to the Texas economy while giving back to its |
|
|
community in myriad ways, and it is indeed a privilege to |
|
|
recognize the role it plays in advancing the prosperity of the |
|
|
Lone Star State; now, therefore, be it |
|
|
RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 84th |
|
|
