Budweiser’s Super Bowl 2017 commercial is a pro-immigration propaganda piece, which will undoubtedly turn off half of their customers, who are already voicing their disapproval of the ad online. It's called "Born the Hard Way." Media analyst Mark Dice has the story.

I cant recall the last time I had a BMC product. Now that I brew my own, I dont miss it one tiny bit, in fact I wonder just how the hell i could stand it in the first place!!
soooooo many good craft brewers out there...
Notice how the Libs neglect to tell you that neither of these men ever went on welfare, deserted their families, or became criminals.
FUBud
A German immigrant would have fit right in in St. Louis in the late 1800s. There was a part of town where German was the first language. Old ladies were still speaking German there when I was a kid. The idea that Augie Busch met with anti-immigrant meanness is a fiction.
Yeah, how many liberals drink Budweiser? The well-off libs, if they drink beer, drink microbrewed or imported beer. The minority libs are drinking malt liquor or Mexican cervezas.
Not to mention, Adolphus Busch came here legally, and obviously had a marketable skill that could contribute to the country.
Their pisswater hasn’t passed my lips in years. As a devout fan of the ORIGINAL Budweiser, Budvar (Czechvar in the US), I think it’s sacrilege to call it beer, much less Budweiser.
I say, "odd" not because that's false, but it casts the NYCers in a bad light, and the flyovers well. Probably not what AB intended?
Actually he probably drank watered-down wine like most everyone else in those days. Drinking water before good sanitation systems were in place was a good way to die young.
Maybe it’s time for a green card check at the Budweiser brewing factories.

To be fair, the commercial is clearly about legal immigration. We should call out liberals when they conflate the two kinds of immigration, and we should avoid mixing the two topics.
All illegal immigrants should be stopped at the border, or deported in they make it in, no matter how long their crime goes without detection. Legal immigrants should be welcomed, although in numbers and with qualifications as determined by Congress.
Looks like a violation of the Sherman anti-Trust act. Maybe it’s time to look into the monopolistic practices of Anheuser-Busch. Maybe a break up is in order.
Budweiser is crap beer. Drink Yuengling or Shiner
Damn they own Brahma and Antarctica in Brasil
Antarctica in the jumbo dark bottles is a very nice lager
Or was 35 years ago
Meh, people whine too much. Yep he gets some harsh treatment arriving here. He also gets welcomed. Then he brews crappy beer. Anybody getting mad about this it’s because they wanted to get mad. Anybody getting happy about it is because they wanted to get happy. There really ain’t much message there.
But the Gaelic Irish were more than just hated because they were Catholic--when they arrived in the 1840's, they were speaking Irish Gaelic only and illiterate, which made them nearly impossible to immediately assimilate into American society. Small wonder why the Gaelic Irish were victims of too many riots against them for many years, and lived the poorest parts of New York City and Boston (remember the movie Gangs of New York?).
Of course a lot of those craft beers rent brewing space from Bud, owner of the most brewing facilities on the planet, so “losing market” is very relative since they’re still making money.
Anyone who is shocked was not paying attention to their commercials for the past year or so.
