ANN ARBOR, Mich. – Actor Miles Teller was spotted in Downtown Ann Arbor on Tuesday, hanging out at bars on campus at the University of Michigan.

The “Top Gun: Maverick” star was seen behind the bar at The Blue Leprechaun after hanging out at the Ann Arbor sports bar staple, The Brown Jug.

No, Teller isn’t moving to Ann Arbor, and he’s not a new enrollee at the university. He was here promoting a beverage he co-owns.

Teller is a co-owner of The Finnish Long Drink, and apparently, Michigan is one of their biggest markets.

“Since our launch in the US, Michiganders have been some of our biggest Long Drink supporters,” Teller said. “As they have continued to help us grow over the years, I wanted to show my appreciation and gratitude towards these fans by buying them a few rounds.”

Scenes from the two bars he visited showed students and fans lining up inside and out to catch a glimpse of the “Whiplash” actor. He was also spotted in East Lansing, doing the same promotional tour.

Long Drink is a sparkling citrus drink with real liquor, sold in a can at most stores.
