Miller Genuine Draft (MGD) "Cold-Filtered" tap handle - this is a classic 11-inch curved tavern tap handle. It features a high-gloss black finish accented by a gold band at the neck and a gold-toned metal ferrule at the base. It showcases the iconic white Miller script logo under a golden eagle, paired with bold white block letters reading "GENUINE DRAFT" and the signature red-and-gold script for "Cold-Filtered".
Miller Genuine Draft was originally introduced in 1985 (nationally in 1986). This specific sleek, rounded black style of tap handle was widely distributed throughout bars and taverns primarily during the late 1990s through the 2000s to promote the brand's unique cold-filtration process.
