I have been giving a lot of thought to a solution to the Bud Light problem…

That my friend....Is why, we drink Pabst Blue ribbon and Rainier in this house pardner.










Well not really. It's because it's cheap.

Field report, WinCo in Everett WA, July 3rd:




And yes, I did see one couple with a 6 pack of BL in their cart, but judging by their appearance (liberal, older woman had purple hair) and the wines they were buying, I don't think they're BL drinkers, probably thought they were being "good allies"
Oh, and they kept leaving their cart in the way of others in the middle of the aisle, sideways.... you know the type!

Yeah....w/some, you gotta hit the walls to really feel something.

Aloha, Mark

Bud Light now cheaper than WATER in some places

Bud Light's market position continues to falter as some retailers say cases of the beer are now selling for less than water.

Why does any person drink any "lite" beer?
Kind of like eating imitation meat in my opinion.

In some states you're allowed to run over the hippies deliberately blocking the highway. We should at least be allowed to kick these pricks in the shins.

BUD has lost around 34 billion in market capitalization since they transitioned, a trend not seen with other beer companies during the same time frame.

And I think there are multiple ways to resolve it. Here are two:

This is ALMOST correct. However, as we all know, you need 3 as a minimum for stability and completion. In other words, this TRIFECTA should also include Hamm's. Nothing more is needed.

Bimart $20 for 30 cans

So corona and modelo is a weird one. Profits from any of the modelo or corona sold in the U.S doesn't go to AB, but rather constellation. Only profits from modelo/corona sold outside of the U.S goes to AB.

So you only indirectly support AB by giving profits to constellation, who orders beer from modelo, which keeps them going, which will then give AB money from all the beer not sold in the U.S.

YT played a Modelo commercial for me today, and it literally had a "do not attempt" disclaimer in fine print when abuela was flipping handmade tortillas by hand......wtf is this world coming to?

Don't attempt because if you mess up abuela coming at you with the chancla.

I'm curious how many people here boycotting Bud Light own a pair of Levis. People have short memories, this will blow over and in a few months most will be trying to remember why they were upset in the first place.

I did a truck inspection last night that had a full load of bud light on board….. headed to Portland.

Somebody is still buying it.

Wearing anything but denim jeans, Levi's denim, would probably cripple me. I did buy a couple pairs Wrangler some years ago, just for the heck of it. Read: Cheap. Just not the same.
Must be because my parents never spent money on Levi's for me. I didn't have my first pair of 501s until I got a job at 16 and bought them myself.

Wranglers today are slightly better than Levi's, especially if you get the ones made in Mexico. Both are made in several countries now, but not in the U.S. Roundhouse are noticeably thicker, and much harder to rip or abrade.
