A 'woke-free' beer created to rival Bud Light, made half a million dollars in 12 hours after it released a special edition can featuring former president Donald Trump's mugshot.

Ultra Right Beer CEO Seth Weathers told FOX Business that sales after the special edition launch were equivalent to over five tractor loads of cans.

'We knew people would go wild over these collector cans, but we had no idea the response would be this crazy,' said the businessman.

I don’t even drink and I’d buy a case or three if they sold it near me.

In the old days, I could be a drunk in peace. No one cared about anything. I get my beer, I drink, I descend into blissful, drunken oblivion...

But, NOOO, they had to interject politics into the process. Now I have to pay attention to who is featured on a can. I mean, in the good old days, they would put Farrah Fawcett on a beer can. And everything was cool. But they had to flippin' ruin it. I can't even be sure if it is woman on a given beer can.

Liberals screw up everything.

Oh man, did you HAVE to ruin my dinner like that? You owe me a cooked in tin foil over the campfire porkchop. And garlic buttered green beans.

For those who liked Bud Light before the boycott, here is a recipe that mimics the flavor.

One half beer + one half water. :)

I see NFL wall calendars in restaurants that have Corona or Modelo (both InBev products like Transheuser Busch) instead of Budweiser or Bud Light.

They're not going to overcome the damage they've done.

Featuring Trump's historic mugshot in monochrome on a black background emblazoned with the words '100% American beer,' the cans cost $25 for a six-pack plus shipping.

25 bucks plus shipping, no way.

The beer company website pledges to donate 10 percent of the sales to the GOP defense fund in Georgia.

And 10 percent to the big guy (i.e. the GOP), excellent reason no to buy.

I think they're more along the lines of a collectors item. I wouldn't spring for it either though I am a huge Trump fan.

'We knew people would go wild over these collector cans, but we had no idea the response would be this crazy,' said the businessman.

Mugshot is in the public domain so he is using Trump to make money and Trump doesn’t get a penny from it. I would never buy that . Wonder what Trump thinks of it.

25% should go to the Trump campaign so we get back to
a good economy and close the borders.
