Yuengling became very popular among the hipsters in East Atlanta about ten years ago.


I think that was about the time it was first for sale in Georgia. Fat Tire had it's day too when they brought it this far East.

I have noticed that Bud commercials are featuring rugged outdoors or construction worker types in their ads.

Coincidence?

I think they are trying to make sure this Bud Light fiasco does t spill over to their other brands.

And I have a hard time seeing that ad as anything but just sort of dumb.


I agree. I thought it was more bizarre than woke.

However, the point remains...all you have to do to be automatically gifted your share of the market share AB just pissed on is...nothing.

And you couldn't even handle that.

Probably more woke than inbev.

You seen the soy boys who normally make craft beer?

Can someone fact check the claims about women being the original brewers?

The ugly chick is trying to claim women invented beer because they stayed home and brewed it as well as cooking food. It's yet another left wing word game.

It's like saying women invented sammiches because they make them all the time.

One of the comments is gold “but at least they were all women”

I used to smuggle it back from CO like I was The Bandit

Drank a lot of Yeungling too when it was first sold here.

But you are right, you don't see a lot of the hipster types drinking it anymore.

This 100%. I live about an hour from Shiner Texas and only drink shiner beer and Yuengling. I will never spend another penny the rest of my life on the piss water that is Coors, Miller, Anheuser-Busch.

Fat Tire was always bad beer. That and Magic Hat were the worst regional options to ever go national.

Yuengling is whatever. It's drinkable, better than Bud or Miller or Coors but that's not saying much.

I don't trust that any of these brands are less woke than the others.

That’s what I’m thinking. People are going to rush out to buy Yuengling only to find out later that they got played.

No one cares whether someone at AB is woke. They care that they instituted a woke national ad campaign.

It’s real.

They already took the entire campaign off their website and killed the links.

I think some missed the irony.
The spokeswoman had nice tits, a tight sweater, and no bra.
and hot chicks in bikini wear was very much visible throughout the ad

plus, they acknowledge a woman’s rightful place in the kitchen - cooking, brewing, whatever

I’m having a hard time getting outraged n this one…

At least it's actual women. That's a win.
