Bud Light’s sales are still floundering months after its disastrous partnership with transgender TikTok star Dylan Mulvaney — and drinkers of America’s former top-selling beer are “just lost forever.” “You see Bud Light still just stubbornly down around 30% in volume compared to last year, which is where it’s been since May or June,” Beer Business Daily publisher Harry Schuhmacher told Fox News Digital Friday. “That tells me that this is quasi-permanent, meaning those consumers are just lost forever.” Schuhmacher’s remarks come less than a month after it was revealed the Anheuser-Busch InBev-owned company had won back 15% of its...

Kid Rock was allegedly spotted at a concert drinking a Bud Light this week, only months after the conservative rocker helped spearhead a boycott of the brand with a viral video of him gunning down cases of the beer.

Months ago, Anheuser-Busch decided to send some beer to Dylan Mulvaney, an openly trans influencer on TikTok. Now, Anheuser-Busch is several months into a genuine boycott from conservatives who protested the move as some sort of attempt to make Anheuser-Busch woke. Whether you have a problem with corporations going woke or not, though, there are many conservatives who have taken real issues with the company, and it has led to serious financial ramifications for Anheuser-Busch.

That's been a popular opinion for conservatives who took issue with the brand engaging the transgender social-media influencer Dylan...
