Anheuser-Busch InBev reported a significant 13.5% decline in U.S. revenue in the third quarter, largely due to the struggling sales of its Bud Light brand.
The decline in sales began after a controversial partnership with transgender activist Dylan Mulvaney, which sparked a boycott and negative consumer sentiment.
The company also experienced a 17.1% decline in North American sales volume during the same period. (Trending: Chilling Video of Muslim Mob Yelling ‘Allahu Akbar’ In Hunt For Jews)

“Anheuser-Busch InBev on Tuesday reported a staggering 13.5% decline in U.S. revenue in the third quarter as the company’s Bud Light brand continues to suffer in the country after a controversial partnership with transgender activist Dylan Mulvaney in the spring,” the report found.
“Sales of Bud Light began to tumble in the U.S. in April, not long after the brand created and sent custom beer cans to Mulvaney to mark her ‘365 days of girlhood.’ That move and comments from Bud Light’s marketing vice president at the time sparked calls for beer drinkers to shun the brand, and the boycott took hold,” the report added.
Bud Light lost its title as the best-selling beer in the U.S. to Modelo Especial, owned by Constellation Brands, in the previous quarter.
