Best beer commercial ever

Some important context to consider

AB is still up 36.71% over the past 6 months, 8.71% over the past 1 year and down 39.52% over the past 5 years.

This is a good read free of pearl clutching and virtue signaling with a mind on the long view as well as consideration of the short term and a recognition of the negative effects of a bad news cycle.

The kind of virtue signaling you didn't see in that infamous photo of Kid Rock enjoying a Bud Light with a drag queen before he pivoted to country and embraced those southern roots he learned as Michigan kid in a well-off suburban white family... after his hip hop days turned into rap rock and he pretended to be, well, Eminem.

Which kinda shows how fickle news cycles and memories are

Meanwhile back in the real world:

Bud Light suffers bloodbath as longtime and loyal consumers revolt against transgender campaign

Excerpts from the real world

Bud Light suffered a bloodbath this past weekend.

Consumers nationwide revolted against the nation's top-selling beer brand after it stepped "recklessly" into the culture wars last week with its new spokesperson, transgender TikTok star Dylan Mulvaney, according to bar owners and beer-industry experts around the country.

Jeff Fitter, owner of Case & Bucks, a restaurant and sports bar in Barnhart, Missouri. Fitter’s bar witnessed a catastrophic decrease in sales of the hometown suds among loyal and local consumers this week. Sales of Anheuser-Busch bottled products dropped 30% over the past week, while draught beer plummeted 50%, the owner said.

Similar stories are found around the country.

Bud Light normally outsells rival products Miller Lite and Coors Light 25 to 1 at Braintree Brewhouse in Massachusetts, a sprawling sports bar just outside Boston. Not this week.
Eighty percent of Bud Light drinkers ordered something else this week, Brewhouse owner Alex Kesaris said — while the 20% who did order Bud Light "weren’t on social media and hadn’t heard yet" about its new transgender pitch person.

One pub in Hell’s Kitchen, a New York City neighborhood known for its large and vocal gay community, reported that Bud Light draft sales dropped 58% this week, while Bud Light bottle sales were down 70%.

a nightmare scenario for Bud Light sales reps in Texas, where the brand has for years has sponsored a large weekly dart league with 100-plus players each Thursday night. The bar sold only four 12-ounce Bud Light bottles this week. The bar typically sells though three kegs of Bud Light at the event — a total of 495 12-ounce pours.

"They've already done enough damage in one week to disrupt year-long sales projections," a beer-sales representative who works with national beer retailers such as Costco told FOX Business.

... No doubt AB there has the money to burn.

And they just did... It's GONE.

... The public surely moves on and finds another beer.
... Few see this decision by AB as a good move.

Would like to be at the next shareholder meeting.

This AB marketing genius should have picked a different Tranny than Mulvaney. He’s just a sissy, cross dresser. She should have picked one with big fake tits and ass!!! Make a Poster with her with the Clydesdales!!

Truth bombs

Common sense, you don’t force the views and morals of a minority on those of the majority.

And AB isn’t forcing folks to drink Bud Light. What they’re doing is destroying their own brand. Seems to me it’s a unforced mistake by them. So, as usual, you don’t quite understand the consequences.

Bud Light owner Anheuser-Busch is reportedly pausing its marketing efforts and reevaluating its influencer partnerships, per the Daily Wire.

A global company. No doubt controlled by Black Rock/Vangaurd. And Wa-La, they are “forcing” a tranny agenda. The backlash was predictable. People can chose to buy products that align with their own beliefs and morals. And they’re fleeing from Bud Light. My guess, they won’t come back.
