Bud light will never recover from this. We need to start supporting pro america companies who care about american values.
If it sells back, I would support them 100%
homophobia?

@wethepeople7382 , no, it's a MAN pretending to be a WOMAN!
I agree
Hit woke companies in the pocketbook. Boycott them all.

A second Kid Rock just hit the second tower of Bud Light
Being woke is literally what Jesus preached his entire life. ❤️🥰
“If you want to be perfect, go, sell your possessions and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me.”
Preachers who teach Jesus’ “Sermon on the Mound” get complaints from many parishioners that the message is too liberal for them. It’s what I’ve know for years…many America Christians aren’t true Christians and don’t want to be.
@@polardiscoball You don't understand what being woke means obviously. First off, the label of "being woke" is the result of the DEI (Diversity, Equity & Inclusion) ideology that the WEF is using investment companies like Blackrock to push on companies. Do you honestly think it was a smart move by Target to sell little girls swimsuits that are "tuck friendly" so that little boys can pretend to be little girls (usually at the encouragement of their parents)? Do you think Jesus would think that it's okay for children(and their parents) and adults to deny the way God made them? Jesus is benevolent but not that benevolent. To deny how God made you is to deny God. Matthew 19:4
While Billy is talking about his families traditions, I'm asking myself why they sold in the first place.
MONEY AND POWER
They saw 53 billion $ sign and no work
They probably cashed out. It's usually a smart move, n getting over 50 billion for a company sounds good.
It was a mistake to sell to these ghouls. The first thing they did was cut the quality of the ingredients. They cut ties with German suppliers that Budweiser spent years building relationships with. Absolutely ruined the taste of Budweiser.
@@daviddunn773
Riiiight...and YOU'D turn down $53 billion which sets up yourself and your family for generations. Sure, Jan.
We won’t stop until this company is destroyed. They MUST be taught a lesson which will reverberate with other companies.
And every American loses their jobs*
Actions have consequences. Go woke? Go broke! @@vanpeters9751
@@vanpeters9751 great grammar! But no, that is capitalism, new companies with better products and better prices will start, and those companies will have to hire new people with the desired skills
Better get cracking, can't find anything new on this. I keep forgetting about this boycott?
Hopefully, MONEY Talks, and we talk with our Feet.
It’s no longer a boycott. People have completely turned their backs on the company. It’s like a friend who betrayed you that you no longer speak about or talk to anymore. That person doesn’t even enter your psyche because you’ve moved on
Yep... I don't care who they sell the company to. The brand is over, and I'm never buying any of their products again, no matter who owns it.
@@hxhdfjifzirstc894 I was thinking that’s the issue the family will run into. They will definitely have to change the name if they buy it back.
I have said this from the start. It's not a boycott. It's outright brand destruction.
When idiots boycott a company and the company simply gets rid of Americans jobs because that's how they don't lose money
I won't ever buy another Anheuser Busch product. I'm done!
Should have never sold the company in the first
Money, money, money.
They didn’t sell it, look it up they lost their company by not keeping an eye on their own stocks. They released to many and this other investment company bought them up & took over company. From what I understand it was a hostile takeover

True story, get greedy and end up paying the price.
Exactly
Lol it only took one 🌈 to literally almost bankrupt a multibillion dollar company 😂y'all better stop tryna please those people

@@billiefurlow1585 Algebra is woke Billie! HOW CAN A LETTER IDENTIFY AS A NUMBER?! 😡
Every beer company sells beer to gays. You should boycott every one and put them all out of business.
And that one person is now a millionaire.
It's sad but it is what it is. No going back. And how others followed suit is beyond me. Only thing I can say is I sure saved money with quitting woke companies. Go woke go broke
Seeing Bud Light marinate on the shelf brings laughter & joy to millions.
Shows what we can do when we all stick together. When they double our electric bill we just stop paying electric. But everybody has to do it to make it work
Utilities are just passing along their energy cost so you know who to blame and it's not them.
Everyone should quit paying taxes!! It goes in the politicians pockets!!!!!!!
@@Andrew-ps9wd the boycott had a big effect. They lost billions not Millions. And when the consumer doesn't agree with freak agendas we will continue to boycott
the boycott cost BUD LIGHT BILLIONS@@Andrew-ps9wd
Please don't advertise with wrong people
I really think you should have kept it in America who understands Americans.
Americans accept an ad about LGBTQ. Right wing nuts are the people drinking weak beer and complaining about everything not them.
they didn't get a choice, InBev seized AB through a hostile takeover
Anyone else drink water?
I’m all into Spindrift. I stopped drinking altogether.
Other companies need to take this as a stern lesson people have had enough of being lectured
While the Busch family did a tremendous job building that company into the worlds largest brewer, they did not see this hostile takeover coming back in 2008. There were lots of kids in that family, and collectively they owned less than 10 percent of the stock. They were powerless to stop it. InBev is a Belgian company, but the three main players in the company, including Carlos Brito, are Brazilian. AB even invited those three to tour the company as a goodwill gesture back in the mid 2000’s. That where they got the idea to try to take them over. Really a fascinating story about how publicly traded companies can be bought out, very hard to stop it.
It was a tragedy to both the workers and consumers of AB
If the Bush's did not have enough money to keep the Anheuser from being taken from them, how can they buy it back from the foreign conglomorate now?
There are so many microbreweries that make much better beer than Bud Light, I'll go with them.
How much did they beg/pay him to come on and say this. Even if the family bought it back the damage is done. Permanently.
GO WOKE! GO BROKE!
If the company mattered to begin with it wouldn't have been sold. All about the money!
If this company mattered other NEWS media would have taken notice. FOX is the king of not relevant Right wing garbage story's.
They didn't sell it, it was done by hostile takeover.
Someone forgot the definition of "target market". Not only did they advertise thru the wrong "messenger", they also ticked off their core customer base. Great job, Bud Light. Sure, Billy will buy it all back for 10 cents on the dollar.
The fact that people still care about Bud Light is absolutely insane
Yeah, weird how people react when their values are attacked. 🙄🤣
FOX NEWS!!! Mundane non-relevant story's spun up into a froth for a select bunch of people wanting to hate everything not them.
@@rustyjames719value what? Throwing a fit Everytime you see a transgender person 😂
@@rustyjames719 Kid Rock cares enough about Bud Light to drink it. This week.
@@keisi1574 Who cares? The rest of us will NOT. We've moved on to BETTER beer. why go back to TRASH?
Shouldn't have sold it to Inbev to begin with!
They didn't, InBev seized the company through a hostile takeover.
I don't care what they do...they get what they deserve...and it will follow this company forever..lost my business for good
Cancel culture wins again! Bud lite has been canceled
You dont even drink beer Tammy!
Make Budweiser an American company again
This is something I can get behind! If they do this I'll buy a case to celebrate!
Unfortunately, many made in America brands are still pushing woke policies. If they want to revive their dying brand, they need to rebrand it back to the patriotic brand it started out as and put an end to its woke culture.
It wont make the beer any better or the Bud drinkers any smarter.
Why the Bush Family dose not deserve it back .........
@@mrdiaz3413No. It would happen again.
Haven’t touched a Budweiser product in quite some time…won’t even consider it until hopefully the original family buys it back.
Too late,we drinking Modelo now😂😂
The best thing for this "brand" is to take it off the market. It will never be America's beer again. They sold it off once, what would keep them from selling it again.
you are so right. This family only knows greed and power. they would sell in a minute to make a buck. let it die.
Owning more than the 5 shares they had at the time of the sale would.
They never wanted to sell in the first place.
Selling it back to the Busch family is a good start but they will need to improve the recipe because it's not a great tasting beer...
That's why it was so easy for people to switch to another brand because there is no special flavor about their beer to draw people back to it.
Prohibition basically destroyed the taste buds of at least one generation of Americans. It wasn't until large numbers of GIs and tourists traveling overseas to Germany, Belgium and the UK took a liking to the local brews and started looking for them stateside did most Americans realize that there was something better out there.
Great idea from Billy. Buy it at the lowest point it will ever be, promote new management that will immediately change course back to their roots as an American owned company. He could make billions overnight.
Bud Light is over. Move on dude.
To heck with them. Will never ever buy their product again. Ever
He was right the first time with that Freudian slip "InBev is a foreign company. They very much understand how to cut revenue..." They sure nailed that one.
I'll go back to Bud Light if he buys the brand. The heritage and family values match mine personal believes. Make Bud great again as an American Owned Company!
Being woke is literally what Jesus preached his entire life. ❤️🥰
“If you want to be perfect, go, sell your possessions and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me.”
@@polardiscoballlol. I think you have the definition of modern day "woke" confused for something totally different if you honestly believe Jesus was "woke". LMAO 😂
@@polardiscoball I understand your comment but must respectfully disagree. Jesus promoted people to be woke to God and His principles. Today's Woke are more like if it feels good, do it! Burning, looting, giving false witness, and lying is far from Godly.
It's garbage beer. American owned??? you people are funny with your fake outrage.
They never should of sold out in the first place. The family buying it back would be the only saving grace .
Why not? You hate money?
InBev will be a Harvard Business School case study on how to implode a classic brand. What the heck does a Belgian know about the traditional US beer drinker
Please, all it has to do is be cheaper than the next garbage beer. These alcoholics just want quantity. That is the corner stone of Walmart as well. Garbage in large quantity.
Not to defend the stupid move of pandering to transgender freaks, but Belgians actually make some pretty good beer (not Stella) if you're not brainwashed on the idea that skunky beers made of adjuncts are actually drinkable. 🙄
Good remarks from a family member.
Desperate remarks from a FAMILY member.
*Never Goin' Back.*
@@drucrouch844Not really. They'll buy back cheap, issue an apology not worried bout groomers, lgbtq plus premium gays that most likely aren't but a couple % of their consumers.
How in the world can you let go of a company your ancestors put their blood sweat & tears into to make a buck? You literally sold them out to a foreign company. I truly hope you can buy them back and bring it back. You’re making the right move
I hear ya. Boulevard Brewing in KC also sold out. I haven’t purchased it since. Not once. I won’t.
You sold the company so family value wasn't much
Natural selection
When you make a deal with the devil, the devil always comes back to collect his due.
Go do a little reading - it was a hostile takeover.
Smart move Billy!
The man that is the Budweiser legacy and a true American has Clydesdales. Most likely the InBev CEO has dresses in his closet. If the Busch family gets the brand back, I will start drinking it again.
"Anheuser-Busch Inbev SA is a Belgium-based company." (from CNBC). It is the CEO Michel Doukeris who is from Brazil.
Should never have sold the company to begin with
They didn't. It was a hostile takeover.
Maybe Heinerscheid could sell her house and use the funds to buy the failing brand.
The sale to Inbev was unpopular in Missouri. The economies and market at the time made sense, but it hurt the area. Many of US shareholders & Warren Buffet favored the sale. As I remember, the family wasn't happy but were not in control. The governor at the time Matt Blunt called the sale deeply troubling. Buy it back Mr. Busch and lets bring Missouri good sense back to this company. Let the Show Me State show everyone the right way to brew and sell beer!
It was not sold, the company was taken by hostile takeover and then that violated the US anti-trust laws and AB had to be busted up before InBev could take it. That's how Corona and Modelo became owned by an American company and InBev was forbidden to own controlling interest in any Mexican brewery.
This grandson is a real man of genius!
Nah, they’ll hold it for 5 years wash their hands and then sell it back to inbev. Let it Die
When advertising takes a political twist, it wont go well.
Us common people hope you get it back.
The values…
Real America!
Not the woke bs!
why was it sold then??
I wouldn’t be real confident that this would fix things… it could drag your entire empire down with it. But it’s a better idea than ANY they’ve had.
I loved the brand, my father worked for that company for 40 years. I will never drink it again!
Its all about money, not the people.
Welcome to America.
InBev, is a Belgian multinational drink and brewing company based in Leuven, Belgium and is the largest brewer in the world.
If that what it takes then, by all means do that. Still won't drink that lousy beer though.
whiner
This might be the only way I'd buy Bud again.
They're dead to me. I don't care who owns it
STOP DRINKING would be better. American beer is FULL OF FLUORIDE
Don't worry all bud light employees will be fired and bud light will still be rich
@@Thoth_al_Khemfluoride is good for rebuilding teeth
It’s Personal for him
Was not personal when he sold it😂😂😂
@@leoangulo3709 yes it was. That kind of money is life changing. He probably thought it was in good hands
Thank you.
If he buys it back. I will buy the beer!
It’s amazing how we hate foreign own brands and yet we established our present in every corner of the world promoting our values…..
😂 Facts…
Time to rebuild that ideal.
I AGREE!!! THIS heir is the ONLY option to revive the Brand. The DMulvaney thing destroyed the Bud Light brand and others.
Forget the social credit .
Now we wonder who's going to play the horse in the Bud commercials if they fired Alyssa Heinerscheid
They didn’t read the room…know your customers. Looks like InBev did cut revenue 😂😂😂
Why did the family sell it in the first place, oh, ya GREED 💲💲💲💲🤑‼️
Now its in the family name is in the 🚽 he is having a OH 💩‼️ moment 🤣
Nope. They have no options. This brand IS NOT SALVAGEABLE
Billy, you can buy it back but I still won't be back. I have a little issue that the heirs sold the business that your ancestors built for PROFIT ONLY. I am sure there were American buyers, but Brazil offered the most, obviously. What will you do? Buy it back, rebuild it, then sell it to China????? No thank you.
If the Busch family buys back Budweiser I will start drinking Budweiser again!
Sellout
@@fauxque5057 Don't be so hard on yourself!
My out of town friends left me a case of spit bl that I wouldn't drink and would rather die of thirst like forever ( Coors original drinker for 30 years) I told them I'll use it for target practice next time I'm out. It's sitting in the 100 degrees in my driveway. 😂
Stella Artois is owned by Anheuser. Many people arent aware of this. FYI.
I think people just admitted to themselves that bid light is a terrible beer
I'd start drinking bud products again if they did that
Not me. I'm done with "Woke".
Change the can to look like your regular Bud and just put 'lite' on it in small letters. This way people won't see it as woke beer. Plus, never sell out to a foreign country again, keep it in America.
Like that would matter. These people don't even know what woke means. Just another trigger word or catch phrase for them to repeat when they don't like something.
He was so proud of his product and family tradition he sold it.
As much as I agree with him and hope he can turn AB around.....make no mistakes...this guy's a business man first and foremost. He wants to swoop in and buy it back on the cheap then pitch the patriot angle and cash in. Then in a few years when it quadruples in value, sell it off again. If it meant so much to him he would have never sold his birth rite out and instead chose to have it remain in his family's control. It's all about the Benjamin's here folks.
What part of "hostile takeover" are you not understanding?
Sadly all companies will have to worry about their social credit scores with all this woke stuff going on.
Please let this happen........
Say NO to Bud Light … No, No, No !!!
We don’t want BUD LIGHT no matter who owns it. Say NO!!!!
Why would you not support a company being sold back to the original owners that is telling you they don’t agree with what happened? That’s kinda dumb. I’d support the hell out of them as should everyone else
can you say "cancel culture" instead?
Why they sell it to begin with? Same bs. Money now they want it back? Cuz they know they can get it at a big discount and then build it back up n sell it again for huge profits
Maybe while protesting folks tried and different brew and realized how terrible Bud Light has always been. No accounting for taste!!!
Love this plan...it should be the ONLY plan.
For those who seem unforgiving, the remaining family members kept opposing the sale but they only owned 5 shares and inevitibly couldn't stop the sale from happening.

Rico charges fit better for the crime syndicate the Biden’s have. 20 shell companies, dead drop email accounts that are used to take payments from other countries, for NO GOODS exchanged.
They never should have turned over control to a foreign company. Nothing may save them at this point.
It was a hostile takeover, the family had no choice.
I will never have a bud light again
Billy's a good business man. Buying back the brand for pennies on the dollar is a very good idea! He'll turn the marketing around and make it great again! The man ain't dumb.
I love the idea I also love that Billy has his own Clydesdales
Budlight just keeps on giving
That sure would be a great idea 👍👍
Hey Billy, that's a pretty good idea.
This just keeps getting better lols
FLush this crap down the drain and every other AB product. Last night I took out 15 guys from the Fire Department - and no AB products were allowed to be ordered! Check the product list and flush them all!!!!!!
Gotta tell you Billy, that's a majorly bad idea. It's beyond saving at this point. You don't come back from a reputation tarnished to this point. You can polish a turd all you want, but it's still a turd
Why did you sale it in the first place????
