The Belgian-Brazilian Conglomerate that owns Budweiser will help “Make America Great” again by renaming Budweiser to “America”.
Until the November election, Anheuser-Busch is renaming Budweiser, its most famous brand, as America.
All 12-ounce cans and bottles of Budweiser will feature the word “America” on their labels, instead of Budweiser, in the brand’s distinctive cursive font.
The temporary label swap, which starts on May 23 and will go through the presidential election in November, is meant “to inspire drinkers to celebrate America and Budweiser’s shared values of freedom and authenticity.”
The new cans and bottles will also feature lyrics from “The Star Spangled Banner” and “America the Beautiful.” A picture of the Statue of Liberty will appear on Budweiser’s 16 and 25 ounce cans as well as its 16-oz. bottles.
