Bud Light suffers bloodbath as longtime and loyal consumers revolt against transgender campaign

Bud Light suffered a bloodbath this past weekend.

Consumers nationwide revolted against the nation's top-selling beer brand after it stepped "recklessly" into the culture wars last week with its new spokesperson, transgender TikTok star Dylan Mulvaney, according to bar owners and beer-industry experts around the country.

"I think society flexes it muscles sometimes and reminds manufacturers that the consumer is still in charge," Jeff Fitter, owner of Case & Bucks, a restaurant and sports bar in Barnhart, Missouri, told FOX Business.

BUD LIGHT SAYS PACT WITH TRANS ACTIVIST DYLAN MULVANEY HELPS ‘AUTHENTICALLY CONNECT WITH AUDIENCES’

"In Bud Light's effort to be inclusive, they excluded almost everybody else, including their traditional audience."

He cited sports fans, working people and women as loyal Bud Light consumers the brand suddenly excluded in its race to go woke.

I buy beer for only one reason: to make beer batter bread.

After the one can of Bud in the closet is gone, will have to find something else. Maybe a good local, unwoke brew.

Who is leading, Wokeism, Climate or Racism? I think it’s Climate by a nose down the back stretch.

Maybe she can save the brand by declaring it the Official Beer of Kwanzaa.

LOL! Excellent!

How were Gillette razor sales doing a year after their tranny ad? I don't know, but that information would be indicative of Bud Light's future.

What i've read about Gillette is that they took a bloodbath, but I don't have any recent information on the topic.

I think beer is different. There isn't an audience watching you shave so that they can make fun of you for picking a sissy razor. There *IS* an audience watching people drink beer, and I think no man wants to be associated with being a sissy or a f@g.

I’m kind of wondering if and when a budweiser competitor may soon attempt to grab all the previously loyal bud drinkers with a counter ambassador of sorts... some masculine “bubba” that ends up mocking wokeness in their ad.

Easy steal if you ask me... but they better hurry!

lol... wouldn’t it be great to see all of Anhauser Bush competitors “COMPETING” with their own “bubbas” to attain the Bud Light nemesis slot!

“Only problem is that conservatives boycott one beer and go with another. Buts it’s made by the same company.”

Here’s a comprehensive list of Anheuser-Busch brands:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AB_InBev_brands#Americas

But here’s the good news: There are local breweries in just about every city, town and village across the USA that sell real beer — not the fizzy alcohol water that Anheuser-Busch markets as beer.

ordering a bud light now in many bars is probably a red flag that’s gonna invite a good-ol’ fashioned butt whipping ... so there’s that now ...

you guys who drink flavored heavy micro brews and Malts are used to what you drink. But the majority of people... 95% worth maybe, look to normal beer as their beer of choice. Personally I drink Coors Light because out of them all, Coors Light’s bender to headache ratio is far below all other beers I’ve indulged in.

Wasn’t “King C. Gillette Co.” acquired by a Russian oligarch? I think all their shaving men’s products are made in Russia now. Perhaps THIS would be a better reason to boycott Gillette.

It actually gets good writeups.

But between 1978 and 1984 or so, Genesee Cream Ale became the biggest selling domestically produced ale in the U.S. We don’t have a ton of numbers from production back then, but as far as we can tell, those were the glory days.

I remember drinking in around 1976, awful heartburn and worse if you drank too much :)

In part, yes.

I haven’t watched more than 10 minutes of the NBA in a long time. NFL, a little more because of being at a party or three.

But I know quite a few who are back to AIS on Sundays watching the game.

OTOH, some college soy boys will try to impress woke women by pretending to be tranny "allies."

Don't know how many tranny "allies" or those pretending to be. But certainly more than actual trannies.
