Quoted: Barron’s Article about Bud Sales Decline I was skeptical about their decline in sales, but Barron’s is a legitimate source. This is a serious crisis at this point. Amazing that they haven’t fired EVERYONE involved. View Quote Don’t think they can. It’s the investment groups that are pushing the ESG crap on corporations. |

the trannies are doubling down too, demanding bud light stand by their commitment to LGBTQXIA{+#$

Left a dislike. I didn't drink their swill to begin with and I certainly don't intend to change that anytime soon.

Quoted: Saturday night one of the bartenders walked up to me and handed me a Bud Light and said that someone at her end thought I should have that. First thought was, "Did someone just call me a fag?" THen I saw her bring a bunch of Bud Light bottles from her end and throw them in the trash and I realized that must have been what they were drinking. But I seriously thought someone was insulting me. View Quote Wow , this is going to haunt them forever. Never thought of this take now I'll never forget it. |

In Bev/AB does not own Modelo and Corona brands in the US. Constellation Brands does. Don't want to get a direct competitor caught up in a boycott.

In honor of the Bud Light crisis I purchased some Yuengling Black and Tan and some Shiner Black Lager.

Don't kid yourself. PLENTY of CEOs and senior management/C-suite good ole boys are woke leftist fucks. Look at BRCC and Evan Hafer or whatever his name is. Very similar background to the CEO of AB, and both woke leftists. |

Stopped by the local liqueur store and asked them to check if they can order in yuengling. Hopefully they can start stocking it

That's a pretty good commercial. "Chicken Fried" is too on-the-nose and too old / played out. I would have gone with something more contemporary but I suspect they're trying to simultaneously market to the 21-25 market who are just now getting enough money together to go to music festivals and similar, and also remind the 30-40 y.o. demographic how fun that was when they had fewer responsibilities, tying the two together with the older song for nostalgia. It's short, it connects, it works.
If they'd done that instead of the tranny cans it would have been a hit. As it is, I'm going to say they should have gone even older for the backing track with some John Prine - "Beats his old lady with a rubber hose, takes her out to dinner, buys her new clothes, that's the way that the world goes round" |

Quoted: Not even clicking on it. Fuck them unless they grovel and explain why they realize it was a mistake and how to prevent it going forward. View Quote I'm not even a Bud Light drinker, but if I was, I wouldn't even consider coming back to their beer until they ran a couple dozen toxic masculinity ads of blue collar, knuckle-dragging, cigarette smoking, greasy, dirty, boot-wearing, ball-cap/cowboy-hat wearing, rugged men in outdoor settings, around machinery, etc. Until that happens, Bud Light will now be known as the Queen of Queer Beer for the woke, gender-confused, metrosexual, trans-feminist-pansy-fruitloop idiots who would rather grab a can of White Claw than a can of beer.

Quoted: Quoted: they should just make an ad with a middle age guy with a big beard wearing a plain grey tshirt sitting at a bar drinking a bud lite. Then the voice over saying "look, we're sorry. we fucked up. We know it. we fired the people responsible for it. It is our fault for hiring them to begin with. Please take us back" This might work. No. They need to endorse and financially support the real important issues: fighting alphabet communities and alphabet agencies by promoting conservative law makers and having guns in their commercials |

They know they fucked up big time. Thus turning off comments. I was a Bud Heavy drinker for 20+ years and always had Bud Light in the beer fridge too. But never again. They have lost me forever.

Some talented person here needs to make a youTube Bud Light commercial video:
Crowded bar, in walks a studly handsome cowboy (slo-mo), camera focused on his butt in tight jeans. Camera switches to a bar patron with a Bud Light on the table who is staring at his butt with a stunned & hopeful look. Camera switches to wide shot of several other patrons with Bud Light on their tables all staring at his butt. Camera switches to shot of the cowboy arriving at the bar, two beautiful cowgirls with despondent expressions who are peeling the labels on their beer, start eyeing him, he asks the bartender for a (manly beer), both women smile big say hi and start chatting with him. Camera wide shot of the Bud Light patrons with dejected looks on their faces. Camera shot of cowboy with beautiful girl on each arm all three with a (manly beer) in their hand. |

https://www.foxnews.com/media/anheuser-busch-gives-away-free-bud-light-make-amends-distributors-after-mulvaney-controversy-report
Anheuser-Busch is also trying to diffuse some of the backlash wholesalers have faced by giving them a letter to show retailers that addresses misconceptions about the Mulvaney partnership. "This can is not a formal campaign or advertisement," the letter reportedly states. "Our new Vice President of Bud Light and all of us at Anheuser-Busch are committed to reminding all of our consumers why they love Bud Light and why they’ve made it the #1 beer in America." The Mulvaney cans were only sent to the influencer to promote on social media but were never available for sale. Wholesalers told the WSJ that customers incorrectly believed they were on shelves or that Mulvaney had appeared in a television commercial promoting the product. Del Papa, a beer distributor out of Houston, Texas, said their staff had received "tons of phone calls from people being very hateful." In a Facebook post, the company said it, too, was "upset about the situation" and had addressed it "with the top leadership" at Anheuser-Busch. It's very clear by their current position that they aren't sorry and they would do it again in a heartbeat. You see, the problem is YOU, you fcking racist. YOU ARE THE PROBLEM HERE. |

Do you look like someone who would be pissed off by such an insult? I mean, you look straight, "toxic" or whatever term they use? |
