The boycott was initiated due to the beer brand&#8217;s partnership with trans activist Dylan Mulvaney, who identifies as a woman. Taffer explained that customers felt betrayed by the brand, as if they had been slapped in the face.<\/p>\n<p>During an appearance on Fox Business, Taffer discussed the surprising longevity of the boycott with host Stuart Varney. While Varney expressed his surprise, Taffer was not taken aback at all.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Beer brands and people&#8217;s connection to their beer is an identifier of your personality, it&#8217;s a personal thing, almost emotional,&#8221; Taffer explained. &#8220;People connect with these brands very heavily and in their view the brand slapped them in the face.&#8221;<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Jon Taffer joined us today to talk Bud Light!<br \/>He also says small businesses should look to the government for support.<br \/>Taffer says BILLIONS are being left on the table! <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/5QUtMdzhUk\">pic.twitter.com\/5QUtMdzhUk<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Varney &#038; Co.

Stores have reduced shelf space for the brand, Stuart. Distributors have a reduced warehouse space. They&#8217;ve reduced order numbers.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This is not disappearing any time soon,&#8221; Taffer continued, noting all the &#8220;distribution mechanisms around Bud Light have all been reduced to adjust to current levels. It&#8217;s forever.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Taffer, renowned for rescuing struggling bars on his TV show, was asked for his advice on how Anheuser-Busch could salvage itself from the boycott and declining market shares.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I think that they need to go back to being a great American brand,&#8221; the TV host suggested. &#8220;And I think they need to stand for American values, which is what they did all these years.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><b data-stringify-type=\"bold\"><\/b><\/p>\n<p>Taffer pointed out that at the end of prohibition, Budweiser&#8217;s famous clydesdale horses delivered the first keg to the White House.

The statement acknowledged the concerns of customers but did not include an apology.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Our summer advertising launches next week, and you can look forward to Bud Light reinforcing what you&#8217;ve always loved about our brand \u2013 that it&#8217;s easy to drink and easy to enjoy,&#8221; said Anheuser-Busch CEO Brendan Whitworth. &#8220;As we move forward, we will focus on what we do best \u2013 brewing great beer and earning our place in moments that matter to you.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Related: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/garth-brooks-doubles-down-on-selling-bud-light-at-bar-talks-diversity-and-inclusiveness\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Garth Brooks Doubles Down On Selling Bud Light At Bar, Talks &#8216;Diversity And Inclusiveness&#8217;<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jon Taffer, from &#8220;Bar Rescue,&#8221; claims the Bud Light boycott due to its association with transgender activist Dylan Mulvaney will have a lasting impact.
