I don't always drink beer, but when I do, it's never AB products.

Our beer aisle this morning.



I guess I'm the only one confused by these pics at times. Here is what I see:

- Miller Lite is not selling at all unless it was just literally restocked.
- Bud Lite has sold some and has less shelf space than Miller Lite but is that due to BL selling more than ML or simply has less shelf space?
- The big three get most of the shelf space regardless and none of it looks like it's selling.

Maybe everyone is finally figuring out how utterly terrible the big three are? It isn't beer.


I thought I was being funny because my picture looked normal to me.
I'm not sure if people genuinely believe someone is going to say, "Wow, if some people say I'm a moron for not believing this, it clearly must be true."

It's not much a persuasive argument. It really just sounds like a bunch of miniature dachshunds barking because the first one one barked when it thought it heard something.

Oh, ok then. I just can't tell what's happening in most of these pics that are posted. This one actually looks like Bud Light is selling more than it's two competitors, but WTF do I know.

Imagine how much Bud Light would be sold in Austin for a Super Regional during June.....

He went to the grocery store early on a Sunday morning. Odds are good most of the store was freshly re-stocked but he has no idea exactly what was stocked or when it was done.

Saw AB is teaming up with Harley Davidson for Budweiser special edition cans and commercials. Trying to see if they can get back the Bikers Lol

Bikers loved to be pandered to. This will be a massive failure.

The thing I read last week that the Harley ad deal was signed months before bud stepped on their junk and then lopped it off. If so Harley should be raising hell with their ad agency and butt lite management.

I think a lot on here fail to realize how much Bud Light was sold prior to the boycott. 25% reduction is an extraordinary amount of cases of beer at retail with the volume AB was moving.

Went to Hallettsville drive through liquor/beer to get some Shiner Bock cans today. Lady said she was glad I did not want Bud because they stopped selling it. I asked if her buyers know that AB makes a lot of other labels. She said "oh they know". Anecdotal obviously, but those saying AB will be fine are full of *****


Go to Los Cabos after? Heard they re-opened yesterday. Not yet confident to try it.
We have not tried Los Cabos. We usually stick to what we cook at home. Will get some BBQ from Glen's a few Saturdays a year.

Does Sturgis have a beer sponsor? That would go well if they do and it's AB

If they go forward with it, they should be ridiculed harshly.

Just saw the ad watching the 'stros. Yea, I am thinking the motorcycle gang contingent are not generally pro-Trannie.

Maybe the busted up yamaha cruiser with a couple methhead tweekers could finally have a harley... beer can.

AB needs to realize that it has to take action to attempt a comeback, not just marketing ploys hoping you forget about Dylan's cans.

I'm surprised Harley would chance ruining their brand by partnering with AB.

Honestly, Harley riders generally are a good target for them. My guess is those guys can't go more than 5 minutes without thinking about/discussing their genitals.

Just saw a lady order a bud light bottle (it isnt on draft) at a spot in The Heights. A few of us at bar gave each other a shocked look, haha. It is the Heights so not sure if she was ignorant of the issue, defiant of the issue, or didn't care, lol…

Those damn Belgie-Brazilian Arabs! I knew it was white supremacists behind this Dylan Muvlaney fiasco.

I have been in touch with some of my people and the rumor is the grand entry is going to have Dylan Mulvaney leading the parade, pedaling a kid's pink tricycle with streamers coming out of the handlebar grips.

I will see in the morning what today was like.

Sundays are church and Demon Spawn time.

But, I haven't had to change my BL keg for at least 5 weeks.

Damn.

I know kegs last longer on CO2... I'm guessing though you can't have a slow moving 15.5 gallon keg sitting like that? Smaller brews that still get a tap slot would be what, pony kegs on those rates?

I have the small kegs for local brews, both Yuenglings, and Blue Moon.


I will keep it until I think it is expiring, but I may just pull it out and find something else.
