What's the point of that? They claim punching this little hole in the top of the can makes for a smoother pour, but no one buys cheap canned beer so they can pour it in a glass. Kind of defeats the point of canned beer (that point being so alcoholic rednecks can more conveniently down a 24 case in under an hour). And I'm sick of ads going on about the can in general. You're selling beer, not aluminum, and fancy cans won't make your piss water taste any less bad.

It's a new way to market the beer.

They don't actually care about their beer, just how much they sell.

Smoother pour when poured directly into your gullet. Only the highly refined palate of the redneck would detect such an anomaly. Finally the beer companies are being sensitive to our backwoods, backwards ways.

I hear that once you're drunk, the taste of the beer matters not.

Yeah I hate most beers in a can, specially anything like Budweiser and Miller.

when I read the title I thought miller had invented a can which you had to punch open with your fist
it seems like the kind of thing that would already appeal to its customers

Look at it realistically, it's just a more convenient way to shotgun beers. If you don't like you are not obligated to use it. Don't overthink a commercial that's just raising awareness for a product that makes certain actions easier.

Brutal/10 would buy, even if it's just a gimmick it's an interesting one.
