Bud Light wants to put this epic PR disaster behind them as soon as possible. Rumors are the Anheuser-Busch marketing team, realizing the futility of making consumers forget entirely, is to brand the boycott as something of the past.

Wikipedia Refers to Consumer Outrage in the Past-Tense as the “2023 Bud Light Boycott”

I never cared much for bud light before the boycott, but friends of mine told me it is supposedly still on-going?

With Kid Rock’s about-face, what’s the status?

I will continue to boycott it like I’ve done my entire life.

I'm certainly a nobody to the subject because I don't prefer BL. That being said, I think the point was taken. At this point, the distributors and line workers are the only people feeling the backlash. That being said, I'm not a fan of the cancel culture in general.

Now, if they were to make a mistake like this again... Sorry, it's lights out.

I never boycotted them because I didn't drink Bud Light to begin with.

I quit drinking Bud Light probably 20 years ago so not a boycotter per say but I do go out of my way to skip on any Anheuser Busch products....they aren't even an American beer maker. I'd rather spend money on beer owned by companies here or on a quality import beer

TLDR I won't spend my money own shite quality beer owned by Belgium.

Give me the good stuff from that country, not Bud Light

There was never a boycott. Idiotic perceptions holding the Mulvaney response as a boycott are why Bud's CIA-CEO should have been fired immediately.

This is a branding issue. Bud Light got branded as Tranny Piss. Surprisingly, Tranny Piss is not a consumption friendly moniker.

I was home over Christmas, attended the Christmas Derby Cockfights in Kingston, OK. Bud Light seemed to be the drink of choice.
Won about $250 on a mean red banty.

I know the old guys at the camp sure wish they'd get a straight up apology so they could buy their Busch Light again. It's put a hurtin on their wallet buying other brands.

I think the Transmania Bud Light incident gave millions of Bud Light drinking baws an opportunity to go out and sample some good beer, many won't be back.

No it needs to stay boycotted as a reminder to ALL companies going forward not to try this again.

p.s. Peyton Manning buying everyone a round of bud lights in a commercial isn't changing my mind. Nice try

I would love to know the total they are paying influencers like Kid Rock, Rogan, Dana White (UFC), endless youtubers to promote that tranny piss.

I will never buy another one and will not drink one if offered. Same goes for anything I know or think is an AB product.

I have taken up making my own wine and beer. It is easy and pretty neat. You then know what is in it, so I think it is healthier.

Pardon the youtube link, but there are multitudes of wine and beer channels and this one is really good. Do it yourself!

Send me the check for the same amount Kid Rock was allegedly paid and Bud Light would be Otay in my book.
