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.”

They have removed their customer comment line. But the line to report quality problems or safety issues is still open. I called it and said I used to drink it sometimes but now I get nauseous when I see the can with that face.
Kid Rock shot up a few cases of this swill. These days Budweiser is owned by a Belgian/European conglomerate.
Keep digging, Bud!
I heard they didn’t put it n their main twitter feed? Why not?
And nobody cared.
LOL! My brother used to drink that crap. I am not sure what it is...but I am 100% sure it isn’t beer. That must be one busy phone line! LOL!
It’s not Bud Light, it’s AB InBev, which is a Belgian multinational drink and brewing company based in Leuven, Belgium.
Most “companies” are just one of many companies owned as part of a huge International Conglomerate.
Bud Lite - now known as Tranny Fluid.
Because who would want to risk standing in front of a trans activist?
New “woman” = New Coke.
Go woke, go broke, destroy this nation. If that their new moto?
Get a can as a collectible, because when this sad, deluded soul kills himself or dies of drug overdose in 1-2 years, it might have some curiousity value.
YouTube has exploded with videos of people pouring their Bud products down the drain, in the dirt, in the street sewer drains.
We’ll see how Q2, Q3 sales go.
I drank (not any more) Natural Light, another one owned by AB.
I was going to switch to Rolling Rock but it also is now owned by AB.
Priced a case of Sam Adams today. That’ll be my new go to although it is expensive comparatively speaking.
AB can go do things to themselves that is physically impossible for any one normal human.
Fake beer for a fake woman. Sounds about right.
I have had Bud Light and didn’t mind it as an occasional alternative to a heavy beer, but I won’t drink it anymore. I prefer smaller brewery fare now, anyway.
Well, that’s what the commies want.
Yep, Fake Beer sponsoring a Fake Woman.
Those Belgians sure know how to party. Euro-weenies and Euro-trash sure do love their freaks.
I always thought Budwiser tasted like skunk piss. Now it all makes sense.
