It looks like everything they said is accurate - I assume the joke just went completely over your head?

It might have been. You didn't find it suspicious that they never mentioned he was a president and focused on his other endeavors?

It's not AI, it's wry comedy.

Prior to starting his own social media brand, Trump was a mediocre real-estate and business investor who managed to attain peak-influencer status. He has attracted massive followings across mainstay platforms like Twitter and Facebook with his unique blend of @dril-style unhinged comedy and via fueling real-world political acts of violence.

That's what made me think it was AI.

Edit: If I had made it to the paragraph Lawbeefaroni posted I would have got it I suppose but it didn't hold my attention that long.

AI can definitely write wry comedy. Either way, I was amused.

I hadn't seen this - it's crazy, It was apparently right after Pearson was expelled.

In their next ad, they'll talk about how it's not for uppity negroes who don't know their place.

It's also $20 plus ~$12-$15 shipping for a 6-pack of 4% ABV beer. You gotta give these guys credit, they've taken the art of the grift to a whole new level.

I wonder which brewer and canning facility they contracted with.

Incidentally, Miller Lite and Coors Light have long supported gay rights.

Grifting money from the sort of people who find that pitch appealing seems almost like a public service.

Also, that dude plays T-ball, like a baby. A real man would have someone try to bean him with a can of Bud Light, but he'd grab it out of the air (without breaking eye contact with the camera), then toss it up and knock it out of the park.

Doesn't make me want a beer from them or give them an endorsement. Go back to the 50s.

That scene was awesome, until the end when Wahlberg unsuccessfully tries to act. If someone where to play a bad actor in a movie they would just have to do a really good Mark Wahlberg impression.

I’d love to know that, too. Probably none we’ve ever heard of. So pathetic. . .

GreenGoo · Post by **GreenGoo** » Fri Apr 14, 2023 11:31 am

And the media is braying how anheuser busch stock is down 5%! But instead of 5% it's the market cap value, just to make the number bigger.

Honestly, fuck this timeline. Maybe we've had it too good and too easy for too long? Context: I'm a white middle aged male living in North America.

edit: I don't actually remember what the stock was down. Picked 5% randomly.

My understanding of the contract brewing industry (and it's an admittedly limited understanding) is that there are a ton of contract brewers out there who will follow your recipe and bottle/can things for you. A lot of your smaller breweries will use contract brewers until they get a big enough presence that they can establish a true production facility (as opposed to something at a brewpub), and you'll never know the name of the contract brewer that is making your favorite local micro.

That's not to defend this idiot by any means. If I'm paying $20 for a six pack, it's going to be something limited and high ABV. Even 3 Floyds doesn't price their sixers that high.

Isgrimnur · Post by **Isgrimnur** » Fri Apr 14, 2023 11:55 am

If the soda companies have to tell me where it's bottled, how would the beer folks get by without?

Post by **ImLawBoy** » Fri Apr 14, 2023 12:02 pm

I think the cans/bottles usually have something about them where they're brewed and packaged.

[edit]All my beer is currently in the basement fridge, and there's too much work going on in the basement at the moment for me to do a spot check.[/edit]

There's probably something in their stable that you can stomach.

Blackhawk · Post by **Blackhawk** » Fri Apr 14, 2023 12:15 pm

There are one or two there that I haven't tried, other than that... not really. I may see what some of those brands offer (I prefer dark with a strong flavor, and the further I get from an IPA the happier I am.)

Does Bud Light Seltzer count?

I drink that stuff all the time.

Also didn't realize that Stella Artois is one of their brands. I occasionally drink that too.

They were InBev before the merger.

I wonder what the difference is between their beers and craft partners.

Post by **ImLawBoy** » Fri Apr 14, 2023 1:08 pm

Pretty sure they own the "partners" outright. I know they own Goose Island, which is listed as a partner.

There are at least four there that should have you covered. If you can find them.

That was my thought as well. I'd honestly like to support Budweiser, but I'd have to find something Budweiser that I'd actually want.

I'm no beer snob (I've never been able to afford it), and I'm not a heavy beer drinker (I will buy a 12-pack every two or three months.) If I get something that I don't like, I'm stuck with it for quite a while. I like ales, stouts, dunkel, and so on (plus some wheat beers.) But I usually only experiment when I can get a pick-and-choose six pack that lets me grab one of six different things (there is a place that has these that I visit occasionally, but it's relatively expensive.)

The “craft partners” didn’t want to admit they were owned by Anheuser-Busch. 10 Barrel in Portland is a perfect example.
