Wagner said. &#8220;It\u2019s just not moving like it used to.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It\u2019s not that they stopped drinking beer,&#8221; he added. &#8220;They just stopped buying Bud Light.&#8221;

that to evolve and elevate means to incorporate &#8220;inclusivity, it means shifting the tone, it means having a campaign that\u2019s truly inclusive, and feels lighter and brighter and different, and appeals to women and to men.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Heinerscheid suggested that &#8220;representation is sort of at the heart of evolution, you have got to see people who reflect you in the work.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We had this hangover, I mean Bud Light had been kind of a brand of fratty, kind of out of touch humor, and it was really important that we had another approach,&#8221;
