Bud Light fall from grace continues. Now #3 on best selling beer list

Modelo Especial

I don't drink beer, but if I did I wouldn't buy Modelo just because of their stupid-arse trashy commercials.

That didn't take long for Bud to catch back up.

They’ve permanently lost about 20 percent of their customer base. I’m pretty sure America sent them a message.

AB taking a hit over this deal isn't media hype. I know a guy who works for the local distributor (Champagne Beverage) and a guy who works for AB Corporate.

They both confirm the financial toll of that debacle was very real and hurt them. That's saying something when you are as big as AB.

The top 3 are all owned by the AB. AB owns more than 20 beer brands.

It's still the #1 best selling beer OP. It just isn't the most profitable in $$$. Makes sense cuz they charge a lot more for cases of Michelob

"Bud Light is still the #1 selling beer in the United States on a volume basis (cases) and has started to recover from the Dylan Mulvaney situation that occurred on April 1st of 2023," a statement from the consulting firm to FOX Business reads. "

Bud Light tastes like shite

Pretty much all Light Beer taste like shite unless you are really hot and thirsty and you want something that does what cold water does without drinking plain old cold water.

But once you hit the point where you get fat easily you have to make some sacrifices and empty beer calories seem to be where mainstream American dads draw the line.

I thought constellation owned modelo

Kind of an odd situation. Constellation owns Modelo in the US and AB-Inbev owns Modelo internationally.

quote:

---

Grupo Modelo, the Mexican brewer, is owned by Anheuser-Busch InBev, the same parent company of Bud Light.

On June 12, 2008, The Wall Street Journal stated that Anheuser-Busch InBev, which owned a non-controlling 50% stake in the company, might attempt to acquire the remaining 50%.[3] On June 29, 2012, it was announced that Anheuser-Busch InBev would acquire the remaining 50% stake for an all-cash price of $20.1 billion.[4] On January 31, 2013, the US Department of Justice filed an antitrust suit in an attempt to prevent the buyout. The matter was settled, and the two companies merged in June 2013,[5] with the transfer of all United States rights to Constellation Brands.[6] As a result, all the company's brands are made (in Mexico) by an unrelated company. In the United States, Grupo Modelo brands are distributed by Constellation Brands

US Distribution is Constellation, International distribution is AB-InBev.

Michelob is owned by anheiser Busch

This. I wonder how many dipshit rednecks switched to Michelob thinking they were really sticking one to the man?
