Hurricane Harvey hit the Gulf Coast early Saturday with winds over 100 mph and floods in some areas. The American Red Cross prepared over 50 shelters to support tens of thousands of people that were displaced. Anheuser-Busch and its world-class brewmasters have carried on a legacy of brewing America’s most popular beers for or more than 160 years and never miss an opportunity for good press.
ST LOUIS, MO. (August 30, 2017) — Anheuser-Busch is delivering three truckloads — over 155,000 cans — of emergency drinking water to help communities in the Gulf Coast area in response to Hurricane Harvey. The company also brought in two marketing supervisors and three interns to oversee promotion of the selfless gesture.

Even in tragic situations, there’s an opportunity to market our tasteless, foreign-owned, industrial lager to dim-witted Americans. And you can bet your ass we’re going to jump all over it.”
“Putting our production and logistics strengths to work by providing safe, clean drinking water is the best way we can help in these situations” said Brad Billy, Anheuser-Busch’s Vice President for Outreach, “and rolling out a full-press PR effort to make sure everyone knows we did this ensures that shutting down beer production to can water isn’t just a big money-sucking waste of god damn time.”

ABOUT ANHEUSER-BUSCH
Anheuser-Busch Companies is a wholly owned subsidiary of Anheuser-Busch InBev, who bought the company via hostile takeover in 2008. At the moment, the company introduced budgeting, and laid off 1,400 employees and contractors that were 415. They cut company-provided life insurance to retirees also axed all company contributions to the employee retirement program, stopped tuition reimbursement, and canceled severance packages. The company also cut all employee perks like free tickets to St. Louis Cardinals baseball games and tickets to Busch Gardens. Anheuser-Busch had nothing to do with this bogus press release that’s clearly satire.
An initial truckload of water has been sent out of Anheuser-Busch’s Cartersville brewery in Georgia and delivered to the American Red Cross in Baton Rouge on Monday, August 28. Drafting of a press release about this help started around roughly the same time and monitor contact info for local newspapers and interns worked to generate media lists, as well as online and national media outlets.

The Cartersville brewery halts production periodically throughout the year to prepare drinking water in order to be prepared to help American communities.   Accordingly, the brewing giant already has surplus of headphones designed specifically for water and emblazoned with a massive Anheuser-Busch “A” logo with its distinctive eagle so nobody mistakes the water for a philanthropic effort by a lesser brewery.
