Videos of unsold Bud Light go viral in wake of Dylan Mulvaney fiasco: ‘Garbage beer’By Ariel Zilber
July 6, 2023
Social media users posted videos of unsold cases of Bud Light over the Fourth of July weekend as beer drinkers continue to shun the brand over its marketing partnership with transgender social media influencer Dylan Mulvaney.
TikTok user Phillip Hawkins wandered into a local retailer and recorded a video showing 12 packs and 24 packs of Bud Light languishing on shelves and in the aisles despite parent company offering significant rebates.
“Bud Light is not selling. This is garbage beer,” he said. “Check it out: even with the coupon, nobody wants this.”
Anheuser-Busch offered holiday-rate rebates totaling $15 for its products — making them free in some parts of the country.
The smaller cases of Bud Light were being offered for as little as $2.99 while the larger ones were going for $4.99.
