When I was growing up all the kids in the block played games together. Girls and boys from preschool to 12 or 13 don't remember even really thinking about gender.

$3.49 for a 24 pack in at least one store.

I might buy 100 cases if she gets to one penny per 24 pack.

But they'd have to deliver it.

yeah, no price would tempt me to buy any kind of light beer. I'd rather have a cup of coffee that I would pay for than a free light beer

I was thinking of the value of the aluminum. :)

But I'd test pouring beer around a plant for fertilizer before messing up a garden.

While Anheuser-Busch InBev weathers a consumer boycott of Bud Light over a promotion from a trans influencer, the fallout is hitting hundreds of independent, often family-owned distributors that sell and deliver Bud Light to stores, bars and restaurants

You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really?

Yeah. They have to deliver something else.

Just because another beer company might made up the difference doesn't mean the drivers for other companies don't still have room on their trucks to make the delivery themselves. Also, looks like Busch pays commissions of some sort which they may not get elsewhere.

I generally only drink light beers unless I can find a cream ale.

So they make two trips. The reality is BUD stepped in it by going tranny thinking for some weird reason that would resonate with their market. I love seeing every sale that goes to some other company.

Budweiser is owned by the Belgian- Brazilian multinational brewing company, AB InBev, which owns 600 brands in 150 countries.

They are probably not too worried about Bud Light.

Talk about a monopoly.

They merged with SAB Miller in 2015.

At least they don't own Pabst Blue Ribbon. A Russian brewer owns that brand.
