Luckily quite a few AB Distributors also have rights to Constellation Brands and Modelo and Corona are keeping them in business. I had one pushing to add Pacifico to our sets I assume to also offset the BL losses.

It's crazy to me to see how popular and expensive Mexican Imports are now when in the 80s they were known for being dirt cheap.


Tecate by the cases at Lake LBJ back in the 80s. Very cheap. Still have an affinity for that purely for the nostalgia.
Tecate - the only beer so bad I've seen high school kids give it away

Thanks for the explanation. To be fair, my first thought about "beer titties" was some sort of, uhm... "enhanced" growth because of excessive beer consumption and not necessarily in a good way.
I used to know a guy who had stretch marks (like a mother would have) because of how much he drank the summer he turned 21.

I forget what channel or program it was, because I was working and not paying attention, but caught a super-americana BL commercial with a cowboy/cowgirl scene at a rodeo or some CW concert. It was such an obvious attempt to pander to the conservative crowd without ever denying what they did, I just had to laugh. FBL and FAB.
Zac Brown's "Chicken Fried" as the soundtrack. Not sure how I feel about that 'cause I love that song.

Yeah, as a run, but not in this context.

That's a doctor for you.
I think that, to be very honest with you, I do believe that we should have rightly believed, but we certainly believe that certain issues are just settled.

That had to already be in production with how fast they pushed it out. That commercial has been floating around with minimal air time for a month or so.

He wasn't a friend; just an acquaintance. He just had the beer belly - not fat all over.

Anecdote: I was at The Station Inn Sunday night (its a well known Bluegrass place) and I only saw 1 person drinking bud light. Place was packed...probably over 200 people.
Normally it's about 50% bud light, 45%coors and the remaining 5% craft beer or whiteclaw

No lie, I weighed about 150 lbs and could go through beer like Homer and never gain an ounce.

Now I look at a six pack and gain weight.

I've never tried to understand it. My dad and his buddies called them that in the 70's & 80's and we still do it to this day. My in-laws are Missourians and they laugh when I call them that.

100-years ago kinfolk were trying not to starve to death. Now our biggest problem is deciding what low calorie light beer we ain't gonna drink because of a twink-'n-a-tub.

So overall we doing pretty good and ain't got nothing to complain about.

Yet.
We may not have worry about starving to death physically anymore, but mentally we are malnourished and spiritually we are starving. If we weren't, we wouldn't be suffering from this insanity.

So, pardon me if I am not onboard with us doing "pretty good".

Anheuser-Busch (BUDFF) is doubling down on support for a pro-LGBTQ+ organization amid recent backlash.

Bud Light announced on Tuesday, May 30 that it would be extending its partnership with the National LGBT Chamber of Commerce which started last year. The brewing company is also donating $200,000 to the NGLCC for the second year in a row.

"Today, Bud Light and the National LGBT Chamber of Commerce (NGLCC), the exclusive certifying body for LGBT-owned businesses, announce they are extending their partnership to continue supporting economic opportunities and advancements for LGBTQ+ Americans and business owners across the country," Anheuser-Busch said in a statement.

BL has stepped into quicksand. Trying to placate both sides, but failing miserably as they're trying to swim themselves out. They could've just kept the dilly dilly campaign, but the tiny tiny and vocal minority in charge convinced them otherwise. It honestly stuns me how they just handed the keys to the asylum inmates voluntarily.

For the love of God, let this be a lesson to CEOs. We don't want to be preached to, just say: "hey look, our product is cheap, drinkable, and gives you a nice buzz"

Is it really that difficult to understand?

Anyone else waiting on BL to roll out their Pride Month promotions? How many grand plans are now in the trash?


Bud light people scared to do anything.

They trotted out a 'merica commercial that pissed people off even more so now they shut down.

Brand safety-stand-down. all hands. nothing goes in or out till they decide what to do.

Lol at this ****.

One of the biggest brands in America clownin' everybody.

They mad. I wish someone on here was in insider at bud light and could give us the inside scoop.

Still radio silent as of this morning.

You are wrong on them trying to placate both sides.

If BL wanted to placate their customers, they would have admitted that serious mistakes were made. They have done no such thing. Why? because we've reached a point where ESG matters more than your balance sheet. If the execs disown the campaign openly, they will never ever be employed at a Fortune 500 company or even S&P mid size company - Vanguard and BlackRock will never approve their appointment.

So the execs would rather watch BL going down the drain.

Frankly their treatment of mainstream America is just contempt. Their "clydesdale 'Merica!" commercial shows just how stupid they think most Americans are. It was barely even a bone they threw.

Yeah that's my point. The military/american flag waving/Clydesdale nonsense is insulting, and only further drives the knife into their own throats.

Bud light twitter account lies abandoned since April 14th.

If the sun sets on the start of pride month without a tweet from Bud light, are we left to conclude that bud light is a fair-weather friend of the LGBT community?
