A week after causing controversy with their sponsorship deal with transgender activist Dylan Mulvaney, Bud Light has yet to post anything new on social media.
The decision to work with Mulvaney appeared to anger some loyal customers including country singer Travis Tritt, who made the decision to remove all of the products from his tour bus and Kid Rock, who angrily shot at several cases of Bud Light.
The beer giant's last tweet came on April 1, when they posted: 'Beers on us? Must be game time. For a chance to win, cheer on your team with #EasyToEnjoySweepstakes in the replies.'
While they have gone a few days without tweeting in the past, the @BudLight is typically fairly active, as are their other regular social channels. The feed had tweeted 10 times in the prior seven days and is usually active during large sporting events.
On April 2, the next day, Mulvaney posed a video across her social media channels announcing the deal and promoting a contest that gave drinkers a chance to win $15,000. The Instagram video currently has over 11,000 comments, many of them unhappy with the promotion.
Given that the partnership with Mulvaney was unveiled during March Madness, the annual NCAA basketball tournament, it's notable that the brewer did not at all tweet during the University of Connecticut's victory over San Diego State in the championship game on April 3.
The famous beer also hasn't posted on their main Instagram feeds since March 31 and have not posted to Facebook since March 30.
Bud Light's parent company, Anheuser-Busch, has also gone without posting since April 1.

Good.
The question remains how long will the fallout continue. Americans by and large can be bamboozled into believing anything, and most have short memories.
Pearls are (belatedly) being clutched.
Die Budweiser, die. I may start drinking again just to NOT drink Budweiser.
Target em, isolate em, boycott em and drive em straight into bankruptcy.
Then, move to the next one, rinse and repeat....
Any man who drinks a Bud Lite now is a feminized wuss.
AB owns a plethora of beer brands. It would serve them right though to see a sales decline in Bud Light specifically. I imagine they’re holding their fire to see what the damage is. Let it blow over. Hopefully Kid Rock reminds his followers frequently.
Well it’s been over a week now and it’s still in the news. Sales are down and this is not helping. Even famous people are dumping the beer.
Bud is now trans faggot pervert beer. They cannot undo that. Nobody but prevert transfaggots will serve it noe.
Real women should not let their men drink Bud Light.
= Pink Beer?
Saturday, about 5 p.m., I bought beer, and looked over at the Bud Light section. One case was gone. All full. Everything else was half to less on their shelves. Hmmm.
You would think their marketing people would know the demographics of their beer drinkers and that and that this “girl” in no way connects with that demographic. Apparently being woke is more important than being smart.
What purple haired, tatted up, nose ringed fool in marketing thought this would be a good idea?
Need to turn the Clydesdales loose on those morons.
Real men never drank Bud Light. Or any other A/B product.
Pretty girls make us buy beer. Ugly girls make us drink beer.
