Bud Light Parent Company Selling Off 8 Beer Brands Amid Transgender Boycott

By Tom Ozimek, August 8, 2023:

Bud Light parent company Anheuser-Busch announced it will sell eight craft beer brands to a Canadian cannabis company amid continued fallout from Bud Light’s marketing partnership with transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney.

The deal will see Anheuser-Busch sell the following beer brands to Tilray Brands, according to an Aug. 7 announcement: Shock Top, Breckenridge Brewery, Blue Point Brewing Company, 10 Barrel Brewing Company, Redhook Brewery, Widmer Brothers Brewing, Square Mile Cider Company, and Hiball Energy.

The deal is an all-cash transaction worth $85 million, according to an 8-K filing by Tilray, which indicates the transaction is expected to close at some point in 2023.

NEW: Transgender Bud Light influencer Dylan Mulvaney has cost Anheuser-Busch $27 Billion in value.

The announcement comes amid continued Bud Light boycott pressures, which were sparked when Bud Light rolled out a personalized can featuring the face of Mr. Mulvaney, a male who identifies as a female.

Irwin Simon, chairman and CEO of Tilray Brands, said that the expected acquisition will elevate Tilray to the status of America’s fifth largest craft beer business and is part of the company’s efforts to further diversify into other markets than cannabis.

“Today’s announcement both solidifies our national leadership position and share in the U.S. craft brewing market and marks a major step forward in our diversification strategy,” he said in a statement.
