Doesn't anyone here drink craft beer? I thought every city/region had lots of craft breweries now?
A lot of them have been quietly bought up by the big guys, AB-InBev in particular. Goose Island, Kona, Breckenridge, Red Hook, Wynwood, just to name a few, are now part of the AB-InBev portfolio.
Where is there "activism?" I only saw a poorly thought out marketing idea. They made one can with Dylan's face, sent it to Dylan, and asked Dylan to promote, which resulted in the now infamous 45 second video. It really shouldn't have been seen by anyone not following Dylan on TikTok. It would never have been seen by others had the outrage machine not gotten ahold of it. I don't know how you can call it "activism" by any stretch,
It's not about this one incident and people are more upset with the way it was handled.
"Bud Light's partnership with Mulvaney formed part of a larger initiative by the beer brand to "evolve" its marketing strategy. " - Alissa Heinerscheid, vice president of marketing for Bud Light

That woman did more damage to the brand than Dylan Mulvany.
OK so Miller is a safe bet that won't be giving money to WOKE Anheiser-Busch now called InBev. I just checked, Coors is owned by them, too.
This means A-B InBev owns:
- Stella Artois
- Beck's
- Coors
- Corona
- (I think they have a controlling steak in Modelo)
- Michelob
- Labatt
Which other ones?
I once bought friends Dos Equis over Models or Corona because Bud Light and Target are now not to be patronized, by most people..... let's keep up the pressure.. Target too...
Maybe Peroni?
Add Modelo to that list - take Coors off the list.

Any others?
Check out New Belgium - long time craft beer that went National decades ago.
Fat Tire is their #1 seller. - for those that like a Belgium Style (like Stella) - try the NB Tripel. ( yummy)

Real Ale Brewing Co - Texas (Devils Back Bone is our favorite) available in 12 pack cans
New Belgium (Colorado)is pretty wide spread and we are real fans of most of what Schafly (St Louis Craft) makes.
Wish we could get it in Texas — we gave up anything other than Craft beer many decades ago.
We do have a couple of “emergency “ traveling brands. Dos XX Dark is one, Stella used to be one (no longer).
I’ve never understood why Left Wingers INSIST on Doubling Down when they are in a deep Hole.

I guess sales being down 30% isn't enough and they want to see them down 50%. If they have $200k to spend on such things then they don't need the consumer's money. Why should they be promoting one group over another. That in itself is discriminatory.
People are sick and tired of corporations involving themselves in social issues. Beer makers need to focus solely on making beer. It's not the place of corporations to effect social change.

Truer words for sure. What kind of crazy is it to deliberately offend your Customer Base?
One thing is for sure BUD INC is NOT the only beer in town.
Perhaps Beer drinkers across America can widen their horizons.
Once they do…. They will never go back to weak Tranny Beer.
Just switch to rainwater and grain alcohol, it even helps to preserve your Purity of Essence.
