Bud Light stands behind partnership with trans activist Dylan Mulvaney despite backlash
NY POST ^ | April 3, 2023 | By Allie Griffin

Anheuser-Busch defended its decision to enlist trans activist and influencer Dylan Mulvaney as a Bud Light brand influencer Monday in the face of growing backlash from critics.

In the Instagram footage, the content creator is dressed like Audrey Hepburn’s character in “Breakfast at Tiffany’s” as she cracks open a Bud Light can and takes a sip.

“This month I celebrated my 365 days of womanhood and Bud Light sent me possibly the best gift ever — a can with my face on it,”

Another video featured the activist drinking a can in her bathtub as part of the campaign.

“Anheuser-Busch works with hundreds of influencers across our brands as one of many ways to authentically connect with audiences across various demographics and passion points,” a spokesperson for the company told Fox News. “From time to time, we produce unique commemorative cans for fans and for brand influencers, like Dylan Mulvaney. This commemorative can was a gift to celebrate a personal milestone and is not for sale to the general public.”

Several conservatives shared their apparent anger over the partnership on Twitter.

“Is the Bud Light thing an April Fool’s joke?” conservative radio host Erick Erickson tweeted. “I mean it is trash beer, but given the constituent demo of Bud Light drinkers, it seems like a terrible marketing thing.”

Today’s “Pride” is not about acceptance of adult relationships. Now all about Gender Ideology, and heavily directed at children.

And not a grass-roots movement, but now a top-down compliance directive from government, media and corporate centers of power.

One feature of Sam Adams is that it actually tastes like beer. Back in the 80’s it was the one US beer which we were permitted to bring over and serve at our trade association’s stand at the Automechanika Fair in Frankfurt. It met the German quality standard. Budweiser (the US brand, not the Czech pilsner) is cattle pi$$.

The big brewers are quickly becoming dinosaurs. There are at least ten microbreweries within a twenty mile radius of me, and each one is thriving. All the restaurants carry the locals, and the stores are devoting more of their shelves to the micros than the former big dogs. Good luck finding a 6 pack of *yum* Schlitz.

” I called it and said I used to drink it sometimes but now I get nauseous when I see the can with that face.”

CLASSIC!!! But the Ukraine Operatives won’t understand what you wrote - they’re too busy trying to jail Trump.

I am glad they did. I hate Bud Light. It SUCKs and tastes like Panther Piss (I am told). It was promoted so well that it is default beer of metrosexuals, and probably every branch of the LGBTQRTS+ community
