I was just sure there were enough trans, queers and women with masters degrees and Bill Gates investment money to keep the brand afloat.

You're 1 of my fav posters but I've had that beer before and it is awful!


Damn. Well, in my defense I drink whiskey and diet soda almost exclusively so I am not in the market for beer regardless.

Found it interesting they were pushing a "Mexican" beer considering Modelo replaced Bud Light as the most popular in the US. Not that Modelo was on my list of desirable potent potables.

Can't see how this would be a profitable.

Also in your defense, you only called it "not terrible." That's not exactly a ringing endorsement!

It's not bad...it has that thing that fizzles inside on their regular guinness when you pop the top...fairly close with the same texture/heaviness and taste...

Weren't they planning on re-booting the brand through a NFL/CFB ad blitz? Interested to see how that works out for them.
Did you watch any of the Chiefs game last night? AB tripled down on advertisements.
Yeah it looks like their plan is to try and advertise their way out.

I think the damage is done though. They might be throwing good money after bad.

Think advertising and brand manipulation a la Estrella, New Coke, AirTran, etc.

AB advertises on two billboards on my work drive that advertised BL. After the BL thing got in full swing, both billboards were replaced with Estrella ads. Recently, one of those went back to BL.

Won't matter to me. I'm a craft beer snob and know the InBev brands. I didn't drink many of them to begin with, but I'm done with all of them now.

It's pretty good. I started drinking more NA beers due to health issues, and I really like Guinness Zero. I'm more of a fan of Coors Edge. Athletic brewing is pretty good, love the Partake Peach Gose and locally we have Tommyknocker Blood Orange IPA NA.

Black Widow has a White Widow NA cider which is incredible and really healthy.

NA beers are one of the fast growing on the market. Takes a little getting used to, but it's nice to have the beer flavor and experience with none of the negatives.

Are they cheeper than their alcohol equivalents? You'd think, at least, sin taxes would not apply?

Drinking NA beers is like drinking de-caf coffee, what's the point?

I don't know how y'all drink NA beers. I've tried several and, to me, they all taste like sour bread. Terrible.

It's not the alcohol in beer that bothers me, it's the bloated, full feeling that I can't stand.

Not sure about sin taxes, but they aren't cheaper due to the process. Quality NA beers fully brew quality beers and then remove most alcohol. The alcohol can be captured, but the extra step adds a cost. I think that's offset by no sin tax, so the price is about the same.

A sixer for Coors Edge is $7.50 here in CO.

Not sure about de-caf coffee since caffeine doesn't affect me, so I drink fully caffeinated.

But regarding beers, some people struggle with acoholism (me), and the best way for me to avoid temptation of drinking too much is to mix in a lot of NA options. I really to enjoy the taste of beer, and the carbonation, so this is a great compromise. They are fully brewed beers with alcohol removed, so they have all the health benefits and none of the drawbacks.

I can drink a bunch on a Saturday watching football and working on my car, and then drive around safely and not feel like crap that evening or the next day.

It's changed my life and I'm much happier now.

The good NA beers are fully brewed and fermented, and then the alcohol is removed.

That does change taste and texture, but for the most part, they taste the same. And after downing a few and comparing to when I drink regular beer at 5%, I do feel much better from a health standpoint.

My alcohol consumption had steadily grown to probably 20 drinks a week, which is very unhealthy. It was causing a lot of stress, anxiety, mood swings, and anger issues particularly on weekends. On my 42nd birthday, after almost destroying the best relationship I've ever had, and reflecting on the past 21 years of drinking, I decided to make some major changes and limit to 1 alcoholic drink a day.

I'm happier than I've ever been in life, and no longer desire the buzz from alcohol.

I'm just joking around, good for you.

Guinness always struck me as…well, carbonated syrup. I know, heresy to some.

You sure it doesn't affect you? I drink coffee and I am not wired with it and not groggy without it, but it will make me **** in 30 minutes like clockwork!

I too have struggled with alcohol. I think whiskey and diet soda and I now mainly just drink diet soda so I guess I get the "taste" factor.

Really just responding to your caffeine comment and to encourage you on your path to avoid the ill effects of consuming too much ETOH.

I used to pound beers and whenever I open an NA I almost always forget to finish them.

Is there a place that I can buy that alcohol and added to mine? Like when my wife orders egg whites at a restaurant and I tell them to cook the yolks for me.

Bud should have put Mulvaney on a NA beer can. Being a male without the best parts of being a male is like drinking a beer without the best parts of being a beer.

I find it easy to believe that the NFL would pay Taylor to show up at a few games ahead of her movie to try to increase overall interest and that Bud Light and Pfizer supplemented it.

How famous is Taylor Swift and how valuable a brand is Taylor Swift?

She got legions of fans across a massive demographic. She probably the most famous brand / entity in America.

The greatest trick Taylor Swift ever pulled was the narraitive that she was somehow being victimized by the record industry. Seems like she prints money at will and may be the most powerful entertainer in the world.

Whoever pointed out above was right. We about to see her come out and go full tilt for all things democrat party. It's 2023 and apparently Taylor Swift and Donald Trump are the most famous people in the world, and we about to see them going head to head, full tilt.

Icing on the cake is she magically gets involved with a dude pushing the vax and bud light, at the same time.

Lol, what a time to be alive baby!

You have to be the most cynical poster on TexAgs. This is a couple that's CLEARLY in love. It's not always about the money.

It would bring me great joy to see Taylor Swift pull a Dixie Chicks move and tank her career. Unfortunately I think she is too smart and too popular to go under from just one torpedo.
