The consequences from denigrating real women and their customer base continue
Bud Light no longer ranks among America’s top 10 beers
Once the top-selling beer in the U.S., Bud Light is no longer on the list of the country’s 10 most popular beers after it partnered with transgender activist and influencer Dylan Mulvaney.
Bud Light dropped from the ninth most popular beer last year to its current spot at 14, according to a new YouGov survey. It fell behind other brands like Pabst Blue Ribbon, Miller Genuine Draft and Miller Lite. Rounding out the top five most liked beers were Guinness, Heineken, Corona, Samuel Adams and Blue Moon.
However, surveys taken in the second quarters of both 2022 and 2023 found that the numbers of those who “liked” Bud Light beer stayed the same at 42%.
People may still like it, but, doesn’t mean they’ll buy it. And more than enough are refusing to purchase Bud Light
Thief Mocked for Stealing Bud Light: Too ‘Embarrassed’ to Buy It
Law enforcement officials in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, on Wednesday, reported a male suspect allegedly stole several cases of Bud Light beer from a convenience store.
When reports of the alleged crime were shared online, readers responded by making jokes at the thief’s expense that referenced the ongoing boycott of Bud Light by conservatives.
One person wrote on Facebook that the suspect was too “embarrassed to be seen buying it.” (snip)
“If the value is $0 is it really theft,” read a comment to Outkick’s post.
It was probably easy, because no one in the store was keeping an eye on it.
(NY Post) Social media users posted videos of unsold cases of Bud Light over the Fourth of July weekend as beer drinkers continue to shun the brand over its marketing partnership with transgender social media influencer Dylan Mulvaney.
TikTok user Phillip Hawkins wandered into a local retailer and recorded a video showing 12 packs and 24 packs of Bud Light languishing on shelves and in the aisles despite parent company offering significant rebates.
Lots of videos and photos at the link.
Meanwhile, has a boycott of Ben & Jerry’s ice cream made a difference? Their parent companies stock dropped to the tune of $2 billion in the days following their wackadoodle post on July 4th. We’ll see if that continues.
