It’s official: Anheuser-Busch can’t even give its product away for free after its transgender publicity stunt. According to images shared on Twitter, stores in the Midwest are attempting to “sell” cases of Bud Light beer for free before they get skunky on the shelves, with the company offering up to a $15 rebate on products sold this Memorial Day weekend.
Twitter user Michael Haz shared pictures of displays from two stores in beer-loving Wisconsin with the infamous brand attempting to offload 20-packs, originally priced at $15, for free after a rebate. Notice that even with the freebie, the displays are stocked.
In a reply to Haz’s original post, user Dan D. Lion shared an image of a Michigan Meijer sale flyer advertizing a mega 24-pack of the beverage for $3.49. “When I was a teenager in the early 80s a 6 pack of beer cost $3.49,” Lion wrote.
The few customers who buy Bud Light from May 17 to May 31 can submit their UPC and receipt online to receive a prepaid card for the value of their purchase. But men, Anheuser-Busch’s key customer demographic, who are not exactly known for extreme couponing or putzing with rebates are also no longer known for drinking Bud Light.
Bud Light sales have plummeted since national boycotts over their partnership with transgender-identifying influencer Dylan Mulvaney, whose face the company plastered on a can to celebrate his self-proclaimed first year of “girlhood.” Shortly after the trans fiasco, a 2021 interview emerged of a top Anheuser-Busch official describing how the brand uses so-called “diversity, equity, and inclusion” ideology, a euphemism for the discriminatory and divisive poison, when marketing its products.
In recent tweets, conservative commentator Matt Walsh celebrated the success of the Bud Light boycott, for which he and others advocated, calling for conservatives who “complained about the Bud Light boycott” to “help us rather than scoffing on the sidelines.”
Similar initial pressure has found success after Target injected its “pro-trans satanist stance” into “pride”-themed clothing for kids. It remains to be seen whether consumers will successfully give Target the full Bud Light treatment.
$1.50 a six-pack. Pearl beer.
I remember the ‘generic’ craze of the 80s!................
Free targets. Shoot em up and then recycle the aluminum and get the rebates.
I think slugs are hermaphrodite...
The King of beers is wearing women’s clothe!?
Having traveled a fair amount, many beers remind me of specific locations. Hefeweizen->Germany, Bodington->UK, Asahi->Japan, etc.. Mixing it up takes me back! :)
Maybe that looter from New Orleans would take them?
I think he’s more into hiney...
Partially ‘cause non commie trash recognize that tranny crappola is pedo.
Mulvaney’s client base is kids on TTok. That is the crowd he is attempting to influence. Why? ‘Cause folks are willing to pay him to help get their hands (literally) on kiddies. He is kinda like Epstein.
There is nothing gay about the tranny crappola. It is all about pedo and getting rich off of it — using taxpayer $$, of course.
Anytime someone “asks” (screams, really) about why you don’t support “tranny rights” tell them because you cannot stomach pedophilia and want all pedos dead. Force them to draw the line. And then, ask why NAMBLA has been in every pride event since the beginning.
One of my all time favorites:

“Since 1040 beer has been brewed on the Weihenstephan Hill in Freising. We are in fact the world’s oldest brewery.”
They have been brewing in the same place for 987 YEARS.
I get one of these every so often....very tasty!
I always enjoy a trip to Germany - although if you’re looking for something outside of wheat beer or Heineken it can actually be a bit limited. ...fine for a trip though.
Re If “conservatives” would do this with Target, MLB, NFL and other corporations we could start changing this country. I have too many friends that keep trying to get back to “normal” since 2020. They think if they have the game on, have a burger and a beer, then life is “good”. I keep telling them nothing will change unless we make the change.

Amen.
Add in use cash whenever possible, use a small local bank, patronize local farmers, avoid whenever possible, any thing ‘smart’ which trades freedom for convenience.
I went to Munich in 1990. A city of 5 million. Every place served the same beer Lowenbrau. Even Burger King at 9 in the morning.
Then I remember going to smaller towns in Switzerland, Austria and Bavaria that only served the local beer made in that town.
In Salzburg, Austria we went to an authentic outdoor beer hall/brewer. Where the local beer Stiegl was brewed by monks.
It was served in a wooden keg. By the clay liter stein or half liter(for girls). They also had beer warmers to set your stein in to warm the beer up.
The tough part was eating dinner there. Bratwurst and sour krout were pretty much the only option.
It was not until we went to Zurich that a bar/restaurant had more than one choice for beer on tap.
By the end of the trip my wife and I wanted some “American” food. So, we went to a restaurant in Zurich called the American Cafe(or something like that). I had a Budweiser Beer and a Beef Steak which they served with butter on top.
There was an old man sitting at a table next to me that asked in his German/English accent: “What are you eating young man?” I replied “a steak, you know beef/cow/bovine”
He had never seen one before. He was in his 70s.
Check
There used to be bar that I drove by that had a sign, “Free beer tomorrow.”
It was a clever sign.
Too bad the bar couldn’t have stayed in business long enough to have been able to change the sign to free beer today.
But I doubt it would have changed its business prospects if the free beer had been Bud Light.

funny...
But yeah, people associate Germany with ‘great beer’ - sure, if you like the one they’re serving....which I typically do but still, can get tiring if you’re there a while. Same with the food, and Germany isn’t high on my list to start with there.
German food is awful.
Italian, French, Mexican, Spanish, Thai, Chinese, Japanese all are good.
I was at a resort in Cabo this spring. It had five different restaurants: Italian, Mexican, French, American Steakhouse, and Seafood. Each were great.
Germans make great Lagers, Pilsners and Wheat Beers. Their food sucks though. So does Indian food.
