Two 12 packs for $20 in my neck of Florida and still no sales. They can’t give the swill away.
Die Bud and all your brands. They could not pay me to drink their rot gut beer. Some of their labels are excellent brews, Kokanee for one. But alas, nothing is lost for me and I will not miss their labels. Good bye fools....
For those not familiar, the major beer producers LOCK-IN their input products (including hops, yeast, etc.) YEARS before their products reach the market. So, their best policy is to NOT anger their customers.
Oh well...that’s life.
And may I add, hee-hee-hee.
Budweiser should have followed the seven rules from the old Monty Python “Bruce” sketch. I guess it’s too late now. Anyway, here are the seven rules.
1. No poofters.
2. No member of the faculty is to maltreat the “Abos” in any way whatsoever—if there’s anyone watching.
3. No poofters.
4. I don’t want to catch anyone not drinking in their room after lights out.
5. No poofters.
6. There is no rule six.
7. No poofters.
I was stationed at Scott AFB near St Louis when Bush Bavarian first came pot in 1957. After being stationed in Bayern, I never touched Bush again.
I can hardly wait to see InBev stock selling below $40.

Just that transweiser crap out near a street derelict encampment. It’ll disappear.

"up to $15' of Bud Light"
In 2006 when the wife and I were moving, we grabbed a last meal at a local family pub in town as we were leaving.
We had been drinking only craft beers (and no lagers) for years. The only beer they had was Bud & Bud Lite on tap. So we each got a Bud, NOT lite. We both left 3/4 full mugs on the table when we left. Horrible swill.
How Bud Lite could be the largest selling beer, regardless of great marketing, is baffling. I guess Americans will buy crap on a stick if they are wooed with the right marketing .
Ah, you have to jump through rebate hoops for the swill.
In price vs. principles I’ll take principles every time.
They could pay me enough to take their beer. It would have to be in cash, and it would have to be a lot. The beer? I’d find the nearest toxin waste dump and leave it there.
Next week’s Bud promo: We will pay you to drink Bud Light.
Since the beginning of the whole trans debacle in early April, AB stock has dropped 14.6%. During that same period, the Dow is down 3.1%, while the S&P 500 is slightly up at +0.6%.
My guess is that it’s cheaper to give it away to consumers than to buy it back from distributors before it expires and they have to take it back. That’s not a ‘new promotion’ that’s just economics.
