Truck drivers who deliver Bud Light have been flipped the middle finger and vendors have been called homophobic slurs, according to beer distributors reeling from slumping sales in the wake of the Dylan Mulvaney fiasco.
Several top officials at beer distribution companies told ABC News they have been put in an untenable position by Bud Light’s St. Louis-based parent company, Anheuser-Busch, which has seen sales of its top brand fall six consecutive weeks since the April 1 tie-up with the trans influencer.
Aside from harassing truck drivers, distributors have faced intentional collisions from shopping carts as they drop off Bud Light and vendors have been called “gay beer salesmen,” officials for the family-owned businesses told the outlet.
“I feel like my main supplier has put the wholesalers and their employees in a really bad spot,” one Anheuser-Busch beer distributor told ABC News.
“It’s frustrating.”
Another Anheuser-Busch distributor based in the Pacific Northwest told ABC News: “It’s sad that they [the boycotting consumers] can’t make that disconnect between the independent wholesale and a big corporation — it’s disheartening.”

With that said perhaps the distributor needs to distribute a different beer?
Poor babies.
Talk to the brand. The ears aren’t listening.
Trying to make those who have chosen to move away from Bud Light the evil ones. I have serious doubts about the authenticity of these “events”.
Oil companies learned long ago NOT to put their names on their tanker trucks (at least some of the companies).
Ahhh… good old VICTIMHOOD. Everybody wants to be a VICTIM.
Same as it ever was. The top brass make stupid decisions. The grunts bear the brunt of the pain.
Kind of like being the 1% of honest people at the FBI. As long as you work for them, you’ll be lumped-in the other 99%.
I suspect some of it is real. I will however wait till the “selfies” and tiktok videos come out of people giving the bird to Bud Light 18 wheelers. If it is happening you know it will be posted.
are they driving expired beer back to bud???
cause they sure as sh1t aren’t delivering...
People are mad as hell about this Woke stuff. You can't blame 'em.
gotta love that deceitful pejorative “homophobic”
lol... just damn!!
**** by Bud Light’s St. Louis-based parent company, Anheuser-Busch. ****
Correction — EUROPEAN BASED imported social rot.
Used to by a 30 every year for my mechanic.
NO MAS, AMIGO
Chode in some places they are giving massive rebates that makes the beer free.
What are you doing Memorial Day? Want to go Skeet Shooting with Bud Light cans?
Yeah I blame the company
But I have no sympathy for the company
AB will be looking for all kinds of ways to be “the victim” here.
It’s their own fault.
I just told two people and they were in shock 🤯 when I showed them the pictures.
WHAT would they expect!
Don’t think Dylan Mulvaney is trans. He’s an actor with a brain, all though a corrupt, twisted one.
He followed the money.
Always the victims.
I don’t think he is either.
