The demand for beer in the good ol’ U.S. of A. has taken a major hit this year, folks. Sales are expected to hit a 24-year low, and beer shipments have dropped by over 5% in the first nine months of 2023. That’s a bigger drop than the last time the liberals tried to take away guns!

Well, first off, the youngins aren’t glugging down beers like they used to. Instead, they’re sipping on fancy spirits and who-knows-what else.
Cannabis sales are through the roof, reaching an estimated $29 million this year. Some fancy-pants investment company says that in the next five years, 18 million more people will be joining the pot party, while 2 million drinkers will be ditching their brews.
The once-beloved Bud Light has fallen from grace after partnering with some fella named Dylan Mulvaney. It seems like that partnership rubbed folks the wrong way, and now there’s a full-blown boycott against the beer. Sales are down a whopping 28% in stores, and even after trying to get back in our good graces with celebrity endorsements and fancy ads, it looks like Bud Light might have lost its fizz for good.
