Voting with your dollar is how the markets correct themselves. It's how corporations learn what is and is not acceptable to their customers, regardless of corporate policy. You don't appreciate the voice of the people being heard?

It's no longer 1962. An ocean of better beers abound.
It was the commodity version of a specialized product, marketed to people happy to consume it as simply a commodity. Hence, it only really exists as a “brand” by virtue of marketing. Why anyone would choose to completely upend the apple cart on such a brand THROUGH MARKETING is inexplicable.

They should define what a woman is in a Super Bowl commercial.

People need to understand that boycotting just one product isn't enough—you have to boycott the entire corporation. I know it can be challenging because only a handful of corporations literally own everything.
Yuengling FTW.

10 years from now drinking bud light will become ironically cool again and it'll have a resurgence
I don't know if numbers reflect it, but even pre-BL almost every white golf dad in their 30s had switched to ML I guess as a product of the retro branding. ML was never the go-to beer in my demo before that that I can recall.

It never will or if it does it will be a long time. Imagine the money they have spent to get Payton Manning and its such a small pickup. People have new habits, they get some other brand.

Yuengling light has taken its spot for me.

No apology, no care.

I don’t think they completely understand who their customer base was….

Dumb. Conscious and responsible economic decisions are one of the hallmarks of being a real man.

I'm a bourbon guy, but i always keep a 12 pack of beer in my shop fridge. Used to like Rolling Rock, but it is owned by woke too. I've gone to Yuengling and Shiner Bock. Both are good, but I like the Shiner Bock a little better.

If I saw a buddy with a BL, I would make a "I fricking knew it, ya Mary" kinda joke.

The Busch family bailed..the Clydesdale pageantry..is over.
InBev just a Global monster at this point. This ain't your pawpaw and pop's AB any longer.
It's 2024, you're no longer choosing from about 20 different watered down American ales and lagers, with exotics like Lowenbrau, Heineken, or Michelob Dark, etc..for more taste back in 1983.

That isn't true, or this would have ended as soon as it began. AB would have dropped her so fast her arse would have bounced off the street, they would have issued a full and complete apology for being fricking idiots in the first place, and all would have been well in a few weeks. Instead, they lied, they apologized that their customers took offense (instead of being dumbasses) and essentially doubled down. They never have actually apologized to this day.

The worst part is all the old fishing pictures I have with Bud Light in the shot, I'll never be able to show them off again.

If that graph is to be believed, their slide was worse before the tranny stuff happened in Q2.
I had switched to C'urs long before this situation and haven't had a single bud light in probably 10 years.
They appear to be rebounding nicely though but I hope they stay in the red for eternity.
