    Modelo Especial, Michelob Ultra and Bud Light. Those are the recent sales rankings of the top three beers in the U.S., according to data shared by Bump Williams consulting firm.

    All three are owned by the same mega corp, Anheuser-Busch InBev. Mission accomplished.

          Only outside of the United States. In the United States, it is sold by Constellation. It was part of the anti-trust agreement.

            Amazing someone downvotes you for this when it spot on.

            In the US, where this matters, it’s not part of InBev.

            If anything, is just highlights how too much stuff is owned by a very small set of companies.

              My first statement was off. I know it wasn’t owned my InBev in the United States but it is a different company that owns it.

              When you start going down that Rabbit Hole, it is just shocking to see what companies own what.

              I think we need stronger enforcement of anti-trust laws.

        No idea. I don’t drink most of their brands because they are garbage.

        I didn’t stop drinking Bud Light because of this, I just never drank it because it is awful.

        About 90% of the culture war, I think, is petty and weird. I do think companies need to be aware that if you lose your focus, you will lose your customers.

          Yea, bus light has always been awful.

          People tasted something else, something better, and now know how bad Bud is.

            I didn’t drink beer for a long time because of Bud Light. There are some decent beers out there. Bud Light isn’t one of them.
