I agree, and I doubt that it recovers. It shouldn’t. Their spokestranny will probably end up doing what most of them end up doing on a long enough timeline, and it will all get to be front page again. They are the tranny beer forever.

Dana White is the guy who said that Rhonda Rousey would “ragdoll” Floyd Mayweather. Obviously, he was hyping up one of his moneymakers. $$$ talks.

Evidently, Kid Rock thought the problem was that their advertising was bad. Dropping the tranny ad campaign isn’t the issue;the issue is that they did it in the first place.

I agree with Kid Rock WE ALL made the point, HOWEVER we really NEED to consider the workers that are being hurt by this AND they had nothing to do with the moronic decisions from the top!! Independent distributors and breweries being shut down are hurting hard working people just trying to support their families!! WE ALL damaged the brand of Bud Lite NOW it is time for a second chance for the sake of the workers!!

The workers can go work for the companies that benefit from Bud Light’s demise.

First , I love Kid Rock’s attitude, but he is a total phony. He never grew up in Detroit or on the streets. He grew up on a farm in a rich family. He is about the money as much as anyone.

Obviously, Queer Beer is a money maker for him. Says a lot about his clientele.

These companies are being THREATENED by the stinking government AND the CEO’s of these companies are just now waking up to the utter brainwashing being done to people they are hiring through the universities!! Bud NEEDS to go back to the animal ads AND NEVER SWAY FROM THAT!! If the ad does NOT revolve around animals the CEO needs to veto it PERIOD!!!

Their problem isn’t the brand anymore. It’s that people have switched to alternatives and they’ve no compelling reason to switch back. If people were just mad at the brand, purely because it was a great product and they knew they had to go without, that would be different. They’d return if some appropriate steps were taken. But it’s not a great product. It had a legacy, cheap beer from the days with far fewer alternatives. That’s gone.

A whore will do about anything gor money, by definition, not by insulting verbage.

These two will do just about anything for money.

Nuff sed.

For me it will never happen, Bud products are gone. I found an American Company Yeungling.

Good heavens, I’m shocked to hear the author questioning the sincerity of highly-paid celebrity endorsers. White’s taking in a tidy $105 million and Lord only knows how much Rock is raking in. They paid Mulvaney a cool $185,000 for his little act (”It was only one can” my aching buttocks). YooToob creators are swimming in endorsements of products they not-so-secretly despise. This game has been going on since Marconi endorsed White Claw (I exaggerate, but not by much). I’d say “Don’t believe these guys” but let’s face it, nobody really does anyway.

AB successfully rebranded their product as tranny beer. No one sane wants to drink tranny beer. It's not a boycott. It's just a successful rebrand. It's fine for mental defectives to self-identify themselves by drinking bud light, but normal people don't want to be identified as being a tranny beer drinker. Of course, it's all garbage "beer" anyway, which doesn't help them. There are plenty of other cheap swill brands out there that took BLs place.

Dawg, I agree, it isn’t any good as a beer, of any type. That is why I don’t drink it and have a hard time understanding why any one drinks it or any light beer. Perhaps having served 7 years in Germany made me biased as to what really good bier tastes like.

[cdcdawg]

Germany (and much of Europe) has great beers. I will probably pick up a case of Warsteiner tomorrow at Costco (not a fan of the 11.2 oz cans and bottles). I grew up drinking Coors, and I understand a lighter beer in hot weather, but Bud Light is really awful. I would drink Octoberfest brews all year if I could.

[GreyFriar]

I have a couple of bottles of Warsteiner and Pilsner Urquell in the fridge. After my 1st tour in Germany, 45 years ago, I decided, upon returning to the States, that the only domestic beer closet in taste to German beers was Stroh’s, which one can still find, if one looks hard enough, primarily in actual liquor stores rather than grocery store beer sections.
