I feel like this has been a great day for the free flow and sharing of deeply held beliefs and competitive markets.
Theories have been developed and fleshed out and supported.
The sharing of ideas and outpouring of comraderie and understanding for our fellow message board persons has moved me personally. I want to thank you all for opening up and sharing today.
To everyone I would just like to say sincerely;
GOOD JOB GOOD POST
Let beer thirty begin, and kick out the jams muthafuckahs!
October 27 is National American Beer Day. The beer holiday was created to provide an opportunity to appreciate the rich history and diversity of American beer production, from its early roots to the thriving craft beer scene of today.
As it stands now, the U.S. ranks second globally in both beer consumption and production. There are over 8,000 breweries operating in the U.S., ranging from large corporations to small craft breweries.
The top-selling beers in the U.S. include Constellation Brands' (STZ) Modelo Especial and Molson Coors' (TAP) Coors Light. The overall market share leader Anheuser-Busch (BUD) still has Bud Light, Michelob Ultra, Budweiser, Busch Light, and Natural Light all ranking in the top ten by sales. Constellation Brands' (STZ) Corona Extra, Molson Coors' (TAP) Miller Lite, and Heineken (OTCQX:HEINY) round out the top ten.
Molson's (TAP) Keystone Light and Blue Moon, Anheuser-Busch InBev's (BUD) Stella Artois and Michelob Ultra Pure Gold, Heineken's (OTCQX:HEINY) Dos Equis are some of the other beer brands that have popped in and out of the top ten during this year. Independently owned Pabst Blue Ribbon and Yuengling Traditional Lager are also firmly in the mix.
According to data from the Brewers Association, independent craft brewers accounted for 13.3% of the overall U.S. beer market by volume in both 2023 and 2024. That represented a slight increase from the 13.1% market share in 2022.
Looking ahead, beer giant Anheuser-Busch InBev (BUD) has a plan to continue to add to recent market share recovery in North America. Evercore ISI noted recently that Anheuser-Busch InBev (BUD) is now in a solid position in the U.S. after the Bud Light debacle pushed the beer giant to reinforce the strong brand equity of Busch Light and Michelob Ultra. The company is seen now having a stronger and a better defined light beer portfolio, with three strong brands featuring distinctive brand equities.
Recent Nielsen data has indicated that Anheuser-Busch InBev (BUD) continues to claw back market share from Molson Coors (TAP). BUD's strategy has been to boost advertising spending on Mega Brands (Michelob Ultra, Busch Light, Stella, Kona Big Wave, Estrella Jalisco, NUTRL, Cutwater, Bud, and Bud Light). The company is also investing more on live sports than a year ago and 80% more than 2022.
Tale of the tape: Over the last 52 weeks, shares of Anheuser-Busch InBev (BUD) are up 19%. Molson Coors (TAP) is down 3.3% over the last year, and Boston Beer (SAM) is off 20.5%.

I hate to see this. It's true, Leinenkugel and Chippewa Falls are nearly synonymous.
