It isn’t stupid, or put another way, this wasn’t a mistake, they know exactly what they are doing. It isn’t some coincidence or grass roots movement occurring causing major corporations to shoot themselves in the head.
They “win” either way - either the destruction of beloved American brands, or they successfully infiltrate another American brand.
At the end of the day, it’s just beer. Watered down beer. A-B doesn’t really care, or at least InBev doesn’t really care - people haven’t stopped drinking beer - they just changed out.
So if they switch to Busch Light - that’s another A-B product! Corona? Yep. LaBatt’s? Guess who!?
i like their new slogan
easy to drink
easy to enjoy
easy to buy another brand of beer
it is so weird
they had been experiencing declining sales before
all this happened
but they never once discussed
improving the product
weird
This is exactly why they call themselves progressives. 2 steps forward and 1 step back is their path to “progress”.
YouTube is killing their brand. Everyday joes are making their own parity and they are very good.
Look up “ESG score” or similar, and it will start to make sense.
Like a “social credit” score, except for corporations. Big $$$ involved, apparently. From out here in the cheap seats, it looks a lot like extortion, basically.
Memorial day is coming up. That is the official kick off for summer. I don't have any official figures,but I'm betting more beer is consumed the next 3 months than anytime in the year and Bud light is on every bodies S**T list. This could be catastrophic for Budweiser!
Play stupid games. Win stupid prizes.
It’s pretty weird, because they should have known this would destroy their brand. It’s not exactly a boycott. No one wants to drink gay beer.
Maybe there is something more going on that they would intentionally destroy their business.
Probably the sales are a lot worse than it seems, because a lot of retailers are selling it at a loss. Like Costco 36 cans for $15. The retailers won’t order more.
She had one job.
They can still sell it for killing slugs
No biggie, she ruined a brand and singlehandedly lost tens of millions of dollars in just weeks.
Bud Light for the light in the loafers crowd
Hey, one mistake, she made just one mistake!
She’ll be a great success over at her new job...VP of marketing at Zima.
Zima is still a ‘thing’?...................
AB owns modelo
Salt is cheaper.......................
i love cheladas too
but i started making my own with yuengling
I only drank Bud lite if it was given to me. I considered it about like bottled water.
I like Yuengling as a cheap beer, but prefer Pilsner Urquell. It’s worth the price.
