Middlebrooks was found unresponsive at his San Fernando Valley home Monday morning. He was subsequently taken by ambulance to a local hospital, where he was later pronounced dead, reported TMZ. No foul play is suspected.

“He connected with people so naturally because he was one of the kindest, most genuine folks around,” said a rep for Miller Coors. “We will miss him a great deal and he will always hold a special place with us.”

In addition to the Miller High Life commercials for which he is best known, Middlebrooks was a regular on TV, making appearances in Parks and Rec, It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, Cougar Town, Scrubs and the Bernie Mac Show. He was also a series regular on CBS’s Body of Proof and the Disney Channel’s The Suite Life on Deck.
