After experiencing Straight White Male Panic because of a social media outreach to a trans influencer, the America First crowd has outsourced the title of America’s Favorite Beer: for the first time, a Mexican brewery has the top selling beer brand in the United States, with Modelo Especial overtaking Bud Light as the nation’s favorite, Yahoo Finance reports.
Sales of Modelo, owned by the same conglomerate that owns Bud Light, jumped about 15% to an 8.4% share of US beer sales, up from 7.3% in the four-week period that ended June 3rd. Bud Light sales share slid from 10.3% in early May to 7.3%. Miller Lite’s remained flat at 5.3% while Coors Light rose just 0.1 percentage points to 6.2% of the market.
