INBEV buys Anheuser Busch

[onlooker]

For 52 Billion.

So they are now Belgian.

The only US made beers left are Sam Adams and the micro brew's. It is a sad day in St.Louis right now. When Wachovia bought out A G Edwards and said they were not going to lay anyone off and they did after a year and a half,I think the same thing is going to happen here. St.Louis is going to turn into a bum city like Memphis and the rest since there will be no jobs for union folk. I am now boycotting all inbev products and I I won't be going to anymore Card's games either. I am going to start rooting for the Bo Sox's I guess.

I hope they take hairlip Jackson't kids gifted distributorship away.

I hope the new owners take the gifted distributorship of the penniless Jackson boys away after daddy hairlip shook Bud down to get them the free distributorship and then got them Chicago corporate welfare to help them build it.

This is the same bunch that bans companies like Wal Mart from coming into town with their own money to build stores. http://findarticles.com/p/articles/m..._84454917?pg_3

InBev will soon own every beer brand in the world. Mammoth.

They'll still brew beer in the U.S. though, right? I mean, they aren't going to start importing Bud from Belgium...

i read about this acquisition , if people boycott Bud just because some Belgium's own it or any country besides the US for that matter, would be silly IMO, Bud will still be made here, just like a zillion other beers are.
Hell, i didn't see people here in Louisville saying were boycotting LG&E (Louisville Gas & Electric) when they went from privately owned to British owned and now German owned.

Let's hope they replace the pisswater in the Bud cans with Stella.

Not a smart business idea. They sell Stella for $12 a pack and Bud piss for $6 a pack. They need to keep the Bud piss around so they can sell Stella at $12 a pack.
