Nice! LOL

Nice! LOL

So are all the major

So are all the major American breweries now owned overseas? I know Coors, and now Bud is, what about Miller?

well it shows us the only

well it shows us the only american beers left are craft beers.i figured they would sell most americans are greedy and its all about money. when miller was bought they still left it union made.

miller owned by south

miller owned by south africans

all the more reason to start

all the more reason to start making your own beer! It's too bad. Bud weathered through the prohibition era, but not a takeover! Does this mean Busch Gardens will be selling InBev beers and be called red star park or something like that?
I feel that this is going to alienate a lot of beer drinkers, as one of the last remaining US Icons to sell out so to speak. I wonder how the Union is handling this. Although I am not sure if AB has one or not, even still not a good thing.

In a weird way, this could

In a weird way, this could get the "regular" drinker on a path to drinking better beer. What I'm getting at is now some smaller beer producers like Sam Adams have a chance to capitalize and grow by attracting the American audience who wants to buy American. In my opinion it loosens the noose a bit on smaller producers and provides opportunity for the "little" guy. The biggest issue will remain distribution of course.

well with InBev's track

well with InBev's track record for cutting the fat so to speak, there would be distribution for the smaller guys, since they no longer have a contract or able to distribute for A-B now. I can now see the trend for more people starting to look real close at who is owning who now a days. Even if your applying for a job even. For fear of being bought out or having your job outsourced.
As for Miller being owned by another un-American company, I am sure that the Unions will not allow it. Unless there is some sort of agreement that is in place and they are waiting for the next bargaining agreement. It is definitely becoming a more global economy these days.
