Lavender blue, dilly dilly
Lavender green
If I were were king, dilly dilly
You'd be my queen.
This song is waaay older than InBev.....
OK, I know I'm an antique, but can you copyright a phrase from a song?

Yes. This was both brilliant and very gracious of Budweiser.

Modist Brewing could go belly up trying to find the answer to that question in court. As jhe888 said, Budweiser was very kind in the way they handled this.

And just to speculate, maybe AB licensed the phrase from the copyright holder of the Dilly Dilly song.

I don't know how old the song is, and maybe it has passed into the public domain. Or maybe the Dilly Dilly songwriter's heirs are about to make some green from AB. Or maybe not, as I don't know much about trademark law.
