Pacifico is brewed by Grupo Modelo, itself owned by Anheuser-Busch InBev everywhere except the U.S., where it's owned by the New York-based Constellation Brands. It is brewed in Mazatlán, Mexico. So, it is largely owned by Anheuser Busch and is not an American beer (like dozens of other ABInBev beers such as Spaten, St. Pauli Girl, Hoegaarden, Stella, Bass Ale, Presidente, Montejo, Leffe, Kirin, Beck's, Boddingtons ...).

That's why this wingnut meltdown over Bud Light is so stupid. Many of these outspoken wingnuts now have switched to Coors Lite which itself has been an outspoken advocate of LGBTQ rights or unwittingly to one of many other brands owned by ABInBev.

This is yet another example of pointlessly stupid performative nonsense by the AltReich, a group that says it's opposed to "cancel culture."
