PR image of Budweiser beer cans, one with the proposed "America" on it. The company wants to replace "Budweiser," the name of the beer, with the word "America."

 From a campaign season already close to blasting beyond parody comes another twist, courtesy of the nation's biggest brewer: Anheuser Busch-InBev announced Tuesday that it would rebrand its 12-ounce bottles and cans of Budweiser as “America” through the November election.

“We thought nothing was more iconic than Budweiser and nothing was more iconic than America,” the creative director behind the rebranding told Fast Co Design, which broke the news.

Yes, it's hard to argue with the iconic nature of Bud, the country's best-selling non-light-beer brand and one of the top sellers on Earth. Harder still to argue with the stature of the U.S. of A. And, frankly, from a marketing standpoint, it's freakishly brilliant, however shameless: Who wouldn't want a refreshing gulp of America during the sweltering summer months?

Peel back the label a bit, though, and one discovers the whole thing tastes a bit thin. Why? Because Budweiser is about as American these days as a successful Green Party or ample paid maternity leave. So many other, smaller — and when it comes to flavor, better — beers scream “America” so much more loudly.
