New Anheuser-Busch logo

I don't agree with you too often but I love this beer.

 

It blows.

I don't like Bud, much. But it's clear it holds an enormous hold over a lot of people's drinking habits.

First, the Busches sell to foreign interests. That ticked off millions.

Now, they waste precious-little time in removing most of the gravitas from their august (pun intended) logo.

These people need no lessons in how to screw things up. They've got it down pat.

Lotsa luck, Jello.

 

I was in St. Louis last summer, when news of the prospective sale was all over the Post Dispatch front page. A friend of mine, a lifelong Bud drinker and Missourian, told me St. Louis would switch to Schlafly if AB was sold to InBev.

I laughed at him because I thought longtime Budweiser fans wouldn't switch that easily. But if InBev is pulling shit like this, he'll be right.

 

Sensitive area.

And ham-handed outlanders fingering the marketing won't help.

 

Heh. Knew someone would beat me to that reply.

Make mine a Winter Lager, newb.

 

Stick with the clasics.

Every new logo sucks.

 

The one good thing about the new AB logo is that it looks temporary. Not contemporary, but something that will not last.

 

I wonder if they will relocate the AB (now ABI) company?

 

And in the spirit of "Baby, it's cold outside" . . .

 

Previous coverage indicated that InBev will make St. Louis its U.S. headquarters.

 

Oh okay, thanks. Atleast they still are still keeping that factory open.
