Bud Light sales have fallen off a steep cliff in only one week following Dylan-Mulvaney-gate, costing the brand millions

These stats are BRUTAL.

Bud Light, the biggest beer brand in America, is getting drawn and quartered by its customer base after paying pretend "girl" Dylan Mulvaney to sell their goods.

Consider these reports from bars across America:

Case & Bucks near Anheuser-Busch's HQ in St. Louis has seen a 30% drop in Bud Light bottle sales and a 50% drop in Bud Light on tap.

Braintree Brewhouse in Massachusetts, a huge sports bar near liberal Boston, normally sells 25 Bud Light bottles to each bottle of rivals Miller Lite and Coors Light, but this week there has been an 80% drop in Bud Light drinkers. Owner Alex Kesaris went an extra step and found out that the 20% who did order Bud Light hadn't heard the news, but said "they didn't order it again" after other customers told them about Dylan Mulvaney.

A bar in Texas with a dart league sponsored by Bud Light normally sells three kegs of Bud Light during the weekly event, or 495 12-ounce bottles. The bar only sold FOUR 12-ounce bottles this week, a decline of 99%.

A pub in the LGBT-friendly neighborhood of Hell's Kitchen in uber-liberal New York City reported a 58% drop in Bud Light draft sales and a 70% drop in bottle sales. This is being repeated across every store, restaurant, and bar in America. Take the example of this gas station in rural Georgia:

Mere days after the backlash began, Anheuser-Busch distributors began worrying about the lack of sales, something that is likely to continue for the foreseeable future.

"Never seen such little sales": This distributor is worried about losing his job because nobody's buying Budweiser after its trans stunt Here's what Budweiser thought would be a really good, surefire, A+ marketing idea: NOTTHEBEE.COM

But in one week alone, the brand – and the company as a whole – has lost millions in sales that it will never recover. Bud Light has literally said "hold my beer" to all the other go-woke-go-broke companies!

"They've already done enough damage in one week to disrupt year-long sales projections," said a national beer-sales representative who talked with FOX. "You don't just make up those sales. People aren't going to drink twice as much Bud Light the following weekend to recover the lost business."

Industry insiders are baffled at the decision to market to the tiny fraction of the population comprised of woke activists pushing to platform mentally ill men like Dylan Mulvaney.

"It's kind of mind-boggling they stepped into this realm," said John Rieker, who owns Harpo's Bar and Grill in Chesterfield, Missouri. "You're marketing to an audience that represents a fraction of 1% of consumers while alienating the much larger base of your consumers."

Nearly no one in the beer industry understands why Bud Light made this move.

"Sometimes you just want to drink a beer without getting a lecture on social or political commentary or someone's sexual orientation," said Patrick Imig, a hospitality consultant in St. Louis.

The reason this ad partnership was made, of course, is because companies are expected these days to pledge their allegiance to far-left political policies, partially because the truly devout see this as inevitable "progress" into a glorious woke future, and partially because woke governments and woke investment firms like BlackRock and Vanguard have trillions of dollars to support companies that pledge said allegiance... or to destroy them.

This is why Bud Light thought hiring their new woke VP of marketing was a great idea!

Watch Bud Light's new marketing VP talk about her desire to update the "out-of-touch" brand with "inclusivity" 🤡

Still wondering why Bud Light featured a man in a dress as its new spokesman?

This government-corporate alliance of political power used to force citizens to comply with their political aims (there used to be a word for this) is being seen in every board room of every Fortune 500 company.

Boycotts of woke products have not largely worked because the media stonewalls coverage of both the controversy and the backlash, keeping the majority of the population in the dark.

But something has happened with Bud Light that touches the nerve of the common man and spreads by word of mouth. Even the dumbest ship's captains in history knew you don't mess with a man's grog!

Bud light= Tranny Juice.

the two things I wonder.
1. if this boycott/ abstention will last more than a month.

2. If this goes farther then Bud Light.. And hits Bud, Michelob, Corona, Stella, modello, etc.. and all of the other Bud lables.

They’ll just keep taking about what a stupid mistake New Coke was.

As stupid as it was, Coke never really went back to the exact same formula they had the day before the release of New Coke. Every one of us at the time who were Coke fans could tell the difference between pre-New Coke and "Classic" Coke.

THEY don’t care.

It is all about destroying everything American and decent that Americans love and enjoy - Boy Scouts, male/female restrooms, public education, Budweiser, sports, religion, saying the Pledge of Allegiance, prayer...

They don’t care how this affects people or families - they want America dead.

Tranny Beer. I haven’t had a Bud branded product for years.

But AB does own or partially own some beer brands I like so I will now avoid them as well

My opinion.

As a former drinker, I can say with authority that Bud Light customers are not abstaining from drinking. They have moved to another beer.

I wonder if it is Corona that has been the beneficiary of the Bud Light boycott (Corona is owned by AB-InBev too).

This will eclipse the “New Coke” debacle of the 1980’s by a order of magnitude.

All Coke had to do was start making Old Coke again.

There is nothing Budweiser can do to stem the tide.....................

A man ordering a Bud Light at a bar these days gets the same kind of looks a man gets when he orders a strawberry daquiri.

I remember lots of folks on FR telling me that boycotts never work.

I always knew that were full of it too.

As long as it’s a private company without subsidies, simple economics dictates that a company cannot continue to mass produce a product for which there is very little demand.

Possibly not. Consider:

On the Buck and Travis show yesterday one of them made the case that the marketing gal will likely be fired (or quit before she gets fired) and will immediately sign-on (at a hefty increase in compensation) with some woke company, who believes in that agenda.

Could that have been her plan all along? it is surprising that she convinced others to go along with this marketing campaign.

My drinking days are long ago and far away, but if I were still drinking, I’d go for German or European beers...............

As I recall, Billy Beer (and J.R. Ewing Beer, and other novelties) was Falstaff. The Carters were really something. What a product of the era.

But I suspect that business schools won’t touch it with a 10-foot pole.

Likely not with a 10-foot trans-vagina either.
