I’ll take a free Budvar.
Time to stockpile Budweiser.
“the price-conscious are trading down”
To what?
I will admit that I enjoy the occasional budweiser. I’d certainly drink a free one.
Free Bud=My Next Beer
Good. You can have my share.
No thank you you. I’ll pass even if it’s free. 
Natty, Mil’s Best, Keystone . . etc., etc.
I like this quote . . Brand consultant Robert Passikoff has serious doubts about Budweiser’s effort. “They’re in trouble because they don’t know how to talk to consumers,” he says. “They no longer know how to create an emotional bond.”
. . . Or adapt to changing consumer demands.
Budweiser isn’t going anywhere.
I could see Bud turning the crown over to Bud Select.
Did I read that correctly? It actually said people are passing up Bud for light beers? Don’t they call that water? :-\
Mine, too. You get what you pay for with free Bud.
If I can get enough of these I can give my upcoming class a treat ;D ;D ;D ;D
“Treat” might be a poor choice of words. ;D
Somewhere along the way they will have a Bud ;D
I always gave my classes bud too - as an example of acetaldehyde
