The "unexpected" thing to do on a fishing trip is apparently bringing the champagne of beers. Because nothing says "I'm one with nature" like cracking open a gold can of premium lager while standing in mud. Michelob is trying to convince us that fishing isn't just about the fish, it's about the aesthetic of the fish. It's the 1970s equivalent of bringing a charcuterie board to a campsite.

Six-mule hitch By: Anheuser Busch, Inc. From: The Empire of Equus 1974
The statement comes after the company reportedly proposed an offer that would eliminate jobs and not recognize Juneteenth as a paid employee
ST. LOUIS — Anheuser-Busch has one more opportunity to commit to union member job security, Teamsters said on Thursday. If the company's next offer doesn't meet union member standards, around 5,000 will go on strike as soon as March 1. "The halting of beer production at Anheuser-Busch's U.S. breweries appears imminent and unavoidable," Teamsters General President Sean M. O'Brien said. "They have a harsh reality awaiting them when Anheuser-Busch breweries are empty, and Teamsters are on the streets." The negotiations continue after 99% of union members at 12 Anheuser-Busch breweries voted on Dec. 16 to authorize a strike.
Two years ago rightwingers turned on them for working with a trans woman. Now they're ending their support for Pride.

Anheuser-Busch has pulled its sponsorship of yet another Pride festival, this time in the company’s own hometown. “We are devastated this year that our hometown brewer, Anheuser-Busch, has declined to sponsor PrideFest after more than 30 years of partnership,” festival organizer Pride St. Louis said in a March 25 press release. “At a time when many sponsors have already reduced their contributions, this decision is especially painful. We are saddened to lose such a historic supporter of the LGBTQIA+ community in St. Louis.” According to the organization, the festival is now $150,000 short of last year’s funding total, thanks to the loss of the Bud Light parent company’s sponsorship and reductions in other sponsors’ contributions. Pride St. Louis Director of Diversity, Inclusion, and Outreach Jordan Braxton told KMOV that representatives for the St. Louis headquartered beer company informed the organization of their decision over the phone. “They decided after 30 years they would no longer sponsor our event,” Braxton said. “That hurt us very much because we are all homegrown here in St. Louis.” The move comes after Anheuser-Busch withdrew its sponsorship of San Francisco’s 2025 Pride celebration earlier this month. Braxton told KMOV that she sees the company’s decision as a direct result of the current administration’s efforts to dismantle diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives in both the federal government and the private sector.
Anheuser-Busch (AB InBev) stabbed the LGBTQ+ community and the city of St. Louis in the back by pulling support from PrideFest after 30+ years of providing support for the event. The cowardice-laden move has led to many bars in the STL area to stop selling AB products.

I'm very worried about Bud Light lately. So far, the boycott against it after it partnered with Dylan Mulvaney has proven surprisingly resilient. I do not want all the progress the LGBTQ+ community has made be set back because of this. Therefore, I am asking as many LGBTQ+ people, along with LGBTQ+ allies, to start buying Bud Light in bulk! We can't let all this be undone. This needs to be stopped! Please share this on every social media platform you can find!
Jeez, if I wanted to read a novel I'd go to the library. Do they really want me to take in all this mumbo-jumbo?
