You are looking a the cheapest and most effective economic weapon of all time.

The cost to produce a single beer can caused $20 billion in economic damages so far.

You right, covid wins out in all categories. Most effective bioweapon, economic, and psychological weapon of all time. Incalculable amount of damages caused by how ever much grant money NIH gave to produce.

He is trans. Nothing woman about him though.

If nothing else, his inability to commit tells us he's still a man, amirite?

I'll see my way out.

I thought he was supposedly trans. The BL can with his picture on it was meant to celebrate his living one full year as a girl, no?

---

How is he trans? From what I've heard he just dresses up as a girl. He still has is twig and berries. What separates him from a cross dresser/drag queen? Genuinely curious. He definitely makes enough money off of this shtick to get surgery if he truly wanted to try and become a woman

What don't you understand? In Clown World, all you have to do is say what you are. Empirical evidence to the contrary does not trump 'My Truth!!!'.

---

Oh, I know. I was just hoping someone from the left could give an answer as to why they are calling him trans instead of calling him out for using their community for his financial gain

Exactly

My anecdotal discussions on Bud Light volumes in my area:

Restaurant/Bar #1 (2 weeks ago) - Sport Bar that I frequent 4-5 times a month. Asked the owner and he said that there hasn't really been a noticible drop in Bud Light consumption.

Restaurant /Bar #2 (today) - BBQ/Casual Menu place that has a nice outdoor patio and has local musicians play on weekends. The owner stated that he previously sold 2-3 cases of Bud Light (not on draft) per week and now sells 2-3 bottles per week (90%+ dropoff). He stated that MU used to be his #1 beer on draft but now it is #6 or #7 (this place has 8 draft handles). He plans on replacing it with a local brew when the keg is empty.

He also owns a spin-off restaurant/bar in the same building that has 48 beers on tap and said it was pretty much the same, but he has much more on tap so the InBev items will stay there. This started based on a conversation about Coke vs Pepsi as he has Coke at the one place and Pepsi at the other. He said Pepsi is easier to work with and that the same can be said for his beer distributors, with non InBev distributors being historically more responsive than the InBev distributor. He is basically happy that he gets to do more business with the non-InBev distributor.

His InBev distributor told him that usually the grocery stores have an "automatic" 2 pallet order delivered weekly and they add some extra based on existing inventory if needed. The big grocery chains have started to not accept the "automatic" orders because they have no where to put them as the product is not moving.

I do not understand how Restaurant/Bar #1 is not impacted similiarly as these two are literally across the parking lot from each other. Maybe owner #1 was just tired of talking about it.

A location of where bar #1 is would be helpful.

Both #1 and #2 are in same town and literally across the parking lot from each other. The drastic difference between the anecdotal evidence seems highly unlikely. I can only think that owner #1 is tired of discussing or does not agree with the "boycott".

And yes, unfortunately Collin County is now purple.........

You're a lightweight! Why don't you double down and be all you can be? Donate all your money to illegal aliens and climate change, move to San Francisco, live in homelessness, sell any guns, become a heroine addict, be employed as a paid protester and help Newsome rig elections?

Does anyone remember getting "iced" from college? Someone would hide a smirnoff ice somewhere (i.e. under a towel on a bench at the pool), and if you found it you got iced and had to drink it as quickly as possible. I wonder if this will happen to cans of BL.

It was after my time, but still fun to do to people when you're closer to 30.

We iced the same guy like 10x one night. College was a blast.

Went to a going away party for a friend of mine about 10 years ago, and he got iced with a 6 pack. He chugged until he puked, and then he continued chugging

My now wife still tells the story of a Sunday afternoon she came home work and the roommate and I were halfway through a case of Zimas with Jolly Ranchers in them.

Man this is SO true. I'm amazed I lived through my 20's with some of the jackassery we got away with.

This is why beta males suck ass. They don't do the fun stuff!

I wouldn't be surprised if retail numbers were down closer to 50%, but their monopoly at some sports and concert events probably get them closer to 20% down overall. I just see so little movement at grocery and convenience stores around me.

---

I'd love to know the breakdown between retailers (grocery/liquor/convenience stores) and sports and concert events.

I've got to think the former heavily outweighs the latter but I suppose if they're still selling a ton of it at MLB parks all over the country MAYBE that could keep the number from getting too high but I've got to think LOTS of middle America types frequent MLB (and minor league) parks so they would avoid it there just as easily as they've been avoiding it in retail.

Now if AB has exclusive deals with some parks that could help them but even in that situation they likely would just go for MU or another AB product instead of BL (even if they knew it was still helping AB but they just needed a beer that badly).

---

A quick scan of their 2022 10k does not reveal this breakdown unless it's buried in the notes somewhere.

Of note:

• North America growth was down 4.4% from 2021 to 2022 so they were already declining here. 2023 over 2022 is going to be fascinating to see. I'm guessing their Finance department already has the vapors thinking ahead to this.
• Their 10k is highly geared towards ESG - it defines who they are.
• I wanted to point out two other products they own that I've never heard of but apparently are very popular for everyone to add to their list: Cutwater, the #1 spirits-based cocktail in the country, and NTRL, the industry's #2 vodka seltzer.

I'm guessing these items are B2B wholesale products that end customers do not have much control over but wanted to bring awareness.
