Bud Light sponsors ‘Pride in the Pines’ despite facing sales slump and backlash
Share on FacebookShare on WhatsAppShare on TelegramShare on TwitterShare on WeChat

Bud Light, the American beer brand, continues its active support for LGBT initiatives, despite facing a significant dip in sales recently. The company appears to be a sponsor for the upcoming “Pride in the Pines,” an all-ages public “pride” event scheduled for June 17 in Flagstaff, Northern Arizona. The family-friendly event, touting itself as a safe space, will host activities such as a parade and an evening party featuring a group of drag queens.

Bud Light’s commitment to LGBT causes came under fire earlier this year when it partnered with LGBT activist Dylan Mulvaney to feature his image on a beer can. This move led to considerable customer backlash and a drop in sales, resulting in the brand losing its top-selling beer title in the U.S to Modelo Especial, a position it had held for 22 consecutive years.

Despite recent controversies, Bud Light remains listed as a primary sponsor of “Pride in the Pines” alongside several other local and national organizations. However, Flagstaff Pride, the organizers of the event, recently distanced themselves from Bud Light in a tweet, adding to the confusion. The event’s website, however, continues to feature Bud Light as a primary sponsor.

In the aftermath of the controversy, Bud Light released a patriotic commercial aiming to reaffirm its American roots, but it did little to alleviate the negative press surrounding the brand. Anheuser-Busch CEO, Brendan Whitworth, issued a vague apology, stating the company never intended to participate in divisive discussions. The brand then released a Father’s Day ad featuring Hall of Fame baseball player Ken Griffey Jr., as part of its image recovery efforts.

Lastly, Anheuser-Busch InBev, Bud Light’s parent company, recently announced a $200,000 donation to the National LGBT Chamber of Commerce, a group promoting LGBT-owned businesses. However, in a twist of irony, several Chicago-based gay bars have announced they will no longer sell Budweiser products, potentially indicating a widening gap between the beer brand and its target demographic.
