Bud Light deniers about to be the latest causality of the propaganda wars. Joining Never-Russia'ers, Tiffany Live'ers, and scamdemic apologists.

Is a Bud Light Denier one who:
Denies Bud Light is dead
or
Denies Bud Light will survive
71   NuttBoxer   2023 May 24, 5:44pm  

Denies Bud Light is in trouble.
72   PeopleUnited   2023 May 24, 7:08pm  

Bud light is in trouble, Ukraine is in trouble, Tiff is alive and well, and the scamdemic was the greatest victory for the globalists in the past 20 years.

The sales numbers are down 30% in the Southeast, that's massive.

As I've said I didn't and don't drink it unless out of desperation. I'm in a different market. I'm not seeing stacks of Bud in grocery stores. People are buying it at the bars I frequent 1-2 days a week for activities like volleyball. It's a midwest beer originally. Maybe that has something to do with it. I'm talking business which most of you here are contractors or W-2 employees and know nothing about business or running one.

No one can say shit until Q2 comes out. I'll keep saying it. Bud can fail. I give zero shits. It's a legacy brand that ain't going anywhere. This is business 101. They made a fucking massive mistake. But you will see draft Bud Light at every bar forever. The other brands are taking advantage of the slip up and making up stats. They don't report until July or August. This happened after Q1 ended. Everything is lies and manipulation right now. This is why people fail at stock picks.

"We're being called 'Gay Beer' salesmen"

More distributors whinge about their vendors being harassed and that people should suck up the Tranny Fluid and LGBTQCIA123+ propaganda because of Jobs are at stake. You know everything in life is secondary to the abstract economy, right?

https://youtu.be/GEpLZ0A5kQU?t=120

They won't lose that big. People switch to other beers; distributors can as well.

It's not a boycott, this is a permanent REJECTION of Bud. All the Clydesdale Horses with US Flags in the background and some glittering generalities about values ain't gonna undo the damage.

Yes, InBev would have to sell the Budweiser line to an American company for Bud to stay in business. Although if they did that, then people would buy Bud and still boycott the InBev line.

I say this is bigger. It's not a rejection of Bud Light as a beer, it's nullification of sexually deviant values by the American people. I was just listening to an interview with a Tennessee senator where they talked about how the federal government was brought to their knees, and the War on Us largely rendered impotent by a bunch of pot heads. Think about it. Cannabis is practically legal today because of fucking stoners, people who sit around and "get the munchies" defeated one of the most powerful entities in this country. And they never fired a fucking shot. All they did was refuse to comply.

Is it sinking in yet? The people are vastly, vastly more powerful than central banks or standing armies. All we have to do is say no.

Ate at a restaurant in Yuma over the weekend. Bud Light and Budweiser were the cheapest beers on a menu full of macro-brews. Did hear a guy behind us order one out loud.

People will still buy it. I think there's a lot of hyperbole around it. Fact is they know their numbers. They can scale back production and lose less. It was a dumb ass decision for sure, but this Doomsday outlook is not realistic. If you want a beer and you're on a boat and the only beer is Bud Light, are you going to say no if you didn't pay for it?

I'd venture to guess half of all alcohol sales are sales people taking customers out or at parties or sporting events. Tailgating at a Brewers v Cubs game in Milwaukee this summer. There will be Bud Light. Hosting a fish fry for my wife's company where I do the grilling. There will be Bud Light. You think the marketing chick at a corporate event that's purchasing the booze has any clue? I always bring my own cooler to any of my wife's events.

We'll see that summer has started. I could be proven wrong. They have a drop, but I don't think it will be as dramatic as people that don't know their numbers are predicting. The major news networks would be out of business if it worked that way. Bud Light is here to stay. I don't like it, but in a pinch, whatever.

After 2024 Covid will be a relic of the past. No one will even remember it and we shut down for 2 years. A tranny on a beer can is 6 months of shit sales. They're a legacy beer brand. Alcoholics that like cheap beer will keep drinking it. Just like people keep smoking cigarettes. Hell they don't even have advertising and people keep buying them.

You should have referred to it as gay beer loud enough for him to hear you.
83   Tenpoundbass   2023 Jun 6, 10:39am  

I've been putting off this report.

Memorial day, my adult daughter and he boyfriend, used to bring Bud Light to family functions. On Memorial day they brought Lite Beer, though I had to inform them Miller is also owned by InBev but it was a start.
I keep asking servers in restaurants, and stock boys near the beer cooler in grocery stores if anyone is buying Bud Light. I never get a "Yes they still buy it." They always seem nervous that I asked, and they might get in trouble if they answer honestly.
Finally Cafe 27 out in the Everglades, a weekend music hotspot. I discovered it this year with my buddy. .We go there sometimes on Thursday night, Saturday or Sundays. They have buckets with Bud Light branding on it, and had ads featuring Bud Light buckets, when I used to look around, it appeared that Bud Light was the beer of choice. Most everyone of the 400 + patrons all had a Bud light in their hand or on the bar or table in front of them. This past Sunday I could not see a nary Bud Light in the whole place. There is zero Bud Light promotional material anywhere. But strange, as I took inventory what the few hundred were drinking. I could not pick out a concise clear winner. It seems people drink all sorts of beer. It seemed like an equal distribution of every beer they offered(Other than Budweiser products) with no clear winner prevailing as the preferred among everyone.
I did not see any Budweiser light or regular.

My shallow Hal interloper buddy finally registered what's going on. He likes to drink Bud Light Premium that blue bottle swill that taste like bum armpit sweat. He wouldn't give it up no matter what I told him. He likes giving me mental wedgies when we discuss politics by going Left to anything I say. Just to get a rise out of me. But after seeing all of the folks at Cafe 27 not drinking Bud Light and being the follower that he is. He now denounces Bud Light because he doesn't want to seem unhip or not cool. What a putz!

You may want to check that. Isn't Miller owed by Molsen-Coors?

I want to simplify this for everybody.

Have you ever seen or heard an advertisement for the product?

Don't buy it.

There, problem solved!

You are paying for the advertisement itself, and this makes the product worse, because instead of paying money to make the product better, they are paying money to get you to buy the product.

And I'm totally serious. I'm in Silly Con Valley Commiefornia, there's a TacoBell here, it blows my mind they exist. There's SO MANY burrito holes here, and they vary in quality, but none of them are worse than TacoBell, and nearly all of them are less expensive. Some are more expensive, and they're great generally. They don't keep in business by producing an inferior product of heavily advertised corporations.

I'm drinking Numb&Number beer right now:



Who the fuck has heard of this? Fall River Brewing. Ever heard of them? No? Well that's fine, probably you can't get it, and if you could, you could find a perfectly fine substitute or even better for the same price. They are certainly more expensive than "Bud Light", but the alcohol content is twice Bud Light and I actually enjoy drinking this.

And yes, I know the name and the image is a gimmick. I still enjoy it, and I've never seen an advertisement and yet people purchase it. I guess the "hook" is the stupid advertisement on the can, but I do enjoy it.

What I find funny is that they are appealing to the Millennials that saw the film "Dumb and Dumber", and are NARROWLY escaping a lawsuit. What else could that be a reference to? I've never seen the film BTW.

It's fucking glorious.

There's always going to be people like Shallow Hal up in TPB's post who keep at it until it's untenable.

I had a thought today about Tradcucks and Leftcucks being the same: They both want you to shut up and sacrifice. The latter to support those in 'need' with all your ability. The former to support those who 'need' chotskies that keep the Traduck underwriters (Marketing First Preachers, Housewares Salesmen, Cheesecake Factory Chain owners, Jewelry Franchises) in business to the best of your ability.

I have to honestly consider if these people are actually human at this point.

If it's impossible to talk to them honestly, if they cannot be honest in a conversation, what exactly are you talking with?

I don't mind disagreement, but when I am talking to a thing I'm talking to which just eternally fucks with me? When they never reflect their actual thinking? I've run into people like that, and it's poison. It's really not human. It's a facade of something mimicking a human being.

I don't know, perhaps they have high levels of mental discord. I don't have any at this age. They are either insane or insincere.

True to an extent. They do get their drafts into dive bars and other places. The draft handles are a form of marketing. It's more subtle. No they're not doing TV ads or or being the "preferred brand" at a sports stadium or something.

Was out there last fall. A micro brewery has an amphitheater in Missoula, MT. The Elm in Bozeman, MT. Kettlehouse. Average beer at best. Cool venues for a show. But that's how the smaller ones advertise now. They make it a bigger business besides beer. Two Brother nearish me, have food, beer and music. It is not so much about the actual beer, although it has to be drinkable.

I'm pointing out that the more a product is advertised, the worse the product is in terms of cost/quality - and there is NO exceptions to this, ever.

Nope, Miller which is part of SABMiller was acquired by Anheuser-Busch InBev. MGD and Miller Lite are Molsen-Coors:

And because you'll need context to understand this:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SABMiller

That picture doesn't have any of the SABMiller beers.
98   NuttBoxer   2023 Jun 8, 9:37am  

So just looked at the websites for both mega companies, and it doesn't line up. Further, my parents live in Denver, and they told me Coors is delivered in trucks with the Budweiser logo, and they also know a service tech for Coors who said he's employed by Budweiser.

And if you look up SABMiller, you get all kinds of beer listed depending on which site you go to. And personally, not sure I'd trust the InBev site to list all their beers right now. Their list seemed pretty sparse for the largest distributor in the world.

If you read the merger article I posted above though, you'll not macro-brewery's have seen declining sales for years now. Obviously nothing like the Bud Light backlash, but they've been on their way out for a while.

If you really don't want to support Bud Light's company, the only sure thing I can tell you is don't drink macro-brews. Drink local, non-shitty beer. Or put on your tutu, stand in your front yard, and own it ;)
99   zzyzzx   2023 Jun 8, 9:42am  

Or drink Yuengling.
Coors is not AB. It's owned by Molson Coors. The local distributor would be a separate company that happens to distribute both. Either that, or because there is an excess of AB trucks and a shortage of Coors trucks they are contracting out the delivery.

How does that work? Repackage?

Fact is InBev owns the brands but they're still independent with some oversight. It's like having individual real estate agents in a brokerage. Each brand gets to decide their marketing. Bud massively fucked up and their marketing department. That chick isn't in charge of marketing for Busch.

Busch Lite or heavy Busch as I call it has probably some of the most manly/American themed advertising. You can't find Busch Light everywhere either. Bud, Miller and Coors ARE the national brands. Coors is awful if you're picking the lessor of 3 choices. Amstel Light is a beer that I'm surprised never got into the major league of light beer.

Boycott Bud Light all day, but there are decent beers under the InBev umbrella company that aren't woke. I've never had Red Hook from that graphic, but that gets confused with Red Stripe. So people will boycott a beer on accident that isn't under InBev with regards to Red Stripe, not Hook. Don't drink Bud. That's their market leader. Punish that. Why punish people that had nothing to do with it? All those employees? The marketing execs that didn't fuck up?

I'm all for bus tossing woke shit, but say this is Ted, the most productive Remax agent fucking up. Boycott Ted. No issue there. But did Jack fuck up? No. They have completely different staffs and brands. Fact is I don't want $8-10 craft beers at the bar. I'm frugal... well mostly. This just raises the cost of beer for everyone. The other brands will raise prices, not inflation related either.

Why?

Because it's how the CoC Suckers get away with it.

"Don't punish Disney, sure they push Groomers, and have H1Bs doing all the Tech Stuff, but there are still a few Americans still employed there..."

When the CoC Suckers get you not to boycott, they continue doing what they do and investors are happy.

But if they can't talk you out of it, it'll go from Muh American Jobs (that they don't care about except when pressured to do something they don't want to do) to 401ks being hurty.

Investors must be made to feel the pain, even if there is collateral damage - only financial agony will get them to desist. We must slap back.

and if Yuengling dramatically increases sales from ImBev's hardship, most of the guys driving Distributor Trucks with Bud, will not even leave their current employer - they'll just deliver in trucks with more Yuengling than Bud in the back instead. And 401ks will recover. Long Term HODLRs won't even notice.

Adam Smith talked of enlightened self-interest: Self-interest always remembering the moral, religious, personal honor, and or QoL issues at the same time. Naked self-interest is Somalia. Without social pushback, Disney and ImBev will not change.

Bud Light is over; the brand is maimed. Only a long term recovery with prosthetics will get Bud Light back to where it was, and ImBev won't do the grovelling apology and stance switch necessary. A few ads with Clydesdales with a flag in the background and some glittering generalities won't make up for sponsoring All-Ages Drag Queen shows and pushing a Gay Man Crossdressing.
102   NuttBoxer   2023 Jun 8, 11:23am  

Don't boycott Human Right Campaign just because their co-founder was tried for sodomy of a minor, think of all the lost jobs!!

This is the slippery slope of ambiguous morality that has led us to exactly where we are today. People who don't have young kids forget how impressionable they are. If they are surrounded with sexual deviancy and perversion, because we want to drink a cheap beer with a dude dressed as a women in front of them, or want to watch our Netflix where the Cuties show is promoted in the background when we start it up, or won't buy our tube socks somewhere else, even though we have to drag our kids past a clothing section where boys are dressed like girls, how is that kid going to think when they get older?

I'm tired of people attacking my way of life because I have a normal family, and want to raise normal kids. But I should care about someone else's job more!? That's some fucked up personal morals, I will continue putting protecting my children, and putting them first. By any means necessary.

Bud Light knocked out of #1 spot.



While Modelo may have knocked the beer giant down for this month, Bud Light sales make up 9.1% of the total market in 2023. Modelo has 8 percent of the market, “representing a gap of several hundred million dollars.”

Bud Light’s parent company Inbev relinquished U.S. sales of Modelo to Constellation Brands in 2013 due to an antitrust settlement.

Constellation’s chief executive officer, Bill Newlands, said the quick rise in sales was unexpected.

https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2023/06/08/king-of-beers-bud-light-replaced-throne-modelo-especial-reigns/

Decades upon decades of expensive marketing, gone in weeks.

KEEP ATTACKING.

For in war just as in loving, you must always keep on shoving,
Or you will never get your just reward:
For if you’re dilatory in the search for lust and glory
You are up shit creek and that’s the truth, Oh! Lord.

Why?

Because it's how the CoC Suckers get away with it.

I'm sorry. You guys are a bit delusional. You want some of these other brands UNDER the InBev umbrella operating independently and kill them over another brand? Killing them all is the worst thing possible. Goose Island has to answer to InBev, but it's their business. They got funding to grow in more markets outside of Chicagoland by InBev. Bud is its own brand, with its own marketing department. Does no one understand this???

Boycotting just drives up the prices of ALL beers. Boycott or don't drink Bud, fine, but there's no point in boycotting other brands under the umbrella. The other brands will just jack prices from the boycott. You could just ignore Bud and move on. Nope. Let's raise the prices of all beers. Supply and demand.

Let's see what everyone is talking about when a 24 case of Miller or Coors is $30-40+. That's where it's going and has nothing to do with inflation. You're just giving attention to trannies as well. That's what they wanted. What do I know. I wasn't in marketing for 15 years. I don't think anyone else here I've read has been. With inflation, if you like beer, enjoy your $4/beer at a grocery store that used to be $1 in the next 12-24 months.

Take ABC or NBC out of the mix. You think companies just stop advertising???? No. They shift it to one of the other big 3 networks. They raise advertising rates. This is exactly what is going to happen from Bud. Coors and Miller will take market share and jack prices along with huge inflation already. Boycott Bud, but don't be retarded because that's what it is.
