Bud Light sales dip after trans promotion, but such boycotts are often short-lived

Bud Light sales dip after trans promotion, but such boycotts are often short-lived Enlarge this image toggle caption Bryan Bedder/Getty Images for GLAAD Bryan Bedder/Getty Images for GLAAD Sales of Bud Light have dipped after conservatives on social media lashed out at its best-selling beer over a social media promotion with a trans influencer earlier this month. By contrast, for the week ending April 1 — the day Mulvaney posted the video — Bud Light sales had declined only 1.6% year-over-year, the same data showed. In an interview last month, Heinerscheid, the first woman to lead Bud Light in the brand's 40-year history, said the beer brand was "in decline." "If we do not attract young drinkers to come and drink this brand, there will be no future for Bud Light," Heinerscheid said on the business podcast Make Yourself at Home.
