Anheuser-Busch issued a response to Dylan Mulvaney after the transgender influencer alleged the beer giant never reached out during the backlash over their controversial partnership.
In an Instagram post Thursday, Mulvaney, who identifies as female, described a torrent of online "bullying and transphobia" that erupted after Bud Light put Mulvaney's face on a customized beer can. "I was waiting for the brand to reach out to me, but they never did," the TikTok star said.
"For a company to hire a trans person and then not publicly stand by them is worse in my opinion than not hiring a trans person at all because it gives customers permission to be as transphobic and hateful as they want," Mulvaney said.
Anheuser-Busch did not immediately respond to a request for comment. The company has issued a generic statement to multiple outlets pledging its support for the LGBTQ+ community without mentioning Mulvaney by name.
"As we've said, we remain committed to the programs and partnerships we have forged over decades with organizations across a number of communities, including those in the LGBTQ+ community," an Anheuser-Busch spokesperson said. "The privacy and safety of our employees and our partners is always our top priority. As we move forward, we will focus on what we do best — brewing great beer for everyone and earning our place in moments that matter to our consumers."
The Bud Light boycott has not relented in the months since Mulvaney's April 1 post with the personalized can went viral. Anheuser-Busch sent the cans to celebrate Mulvaney's first full year of "womanhood," and the influencer posted about this "best gift ever" with "#budlightpartner."

All lgbtq-lsmft types need to boycott!
Anheuser-Busch just can’t accept the fact that they’re toast.
Bud Light is actually “brewed”?
Did Joe Biden write that headline?😁
Yep this sick creep gets an instant response. After Losing billions they give their customers an ad that ridicules said base. If l held stock l would bring suit
It just keeps getting better and better.
AB InBev has demonstrated that they cannot make anyone happy, including a large number of decent Americans that make a living making, distributing and selling AB products. It’s a textbook example of how leftist destroy everything they touch.
The grain is brewed in the horse’s digestive system and then warm-filtered in his kidneys.
I agree! Advertise them constantly!--THEN go bankrupt.
🔝🔝🔝
🛐🙏✝️
Pervert beer.
LOL - now every time this tranny speaks, regardless of the topic, people are going to think: “BUD LIGHT.”
Bud Light hoisted themselves on their own woke petard.
You may rest assured...the stockholders WILL bring suit.
I really like the new unconstrained Megyn Kelly, here she and the Chicks on the Right rip poor victim Dylan a new one, and ask the important question the Bud CEO is avoiding: what kind of “brand deal” as Mulvaney calls it, was this - and were applicable laws regarding promotion of alcoholic products complied with? Worth watching:
“Yet they have not responded to their former paying customers.”
Actually they have responded. Silence is an answer.
at this point, ABinbev needs pay dylan to sign a non-disclosure agreement that requires dylan to keep its big fat mouth shut regarding ANYTHING related to ABinbev and its products ... period ...
lolol. Y’all keep drinking that beer. The more you drink of ANY beer, the prettier Mulvaney looks. You’re STILL drinking In-Bev products, you just don’t know it. THAT is why the company will NOT apologize nor disavow support for perversion.
Now they would be paying the creep that cost them billions? If that got out the boycott continues their downward spiral.
I meant the boycott would become stronger and continue unabated
