    Thanks Adolphus Busch IV, way to keep that American owned tradition going.

    The price to get an American company to become Europe v.2? $52Billion.
    Money out weighs conscience and/or convictions.

    Never drank any Bud products, nor Becks - they go hand in hand in the taste department for me.. Beer is not made with rice!

    The ONLY good thing I can see from this is it may put another needle in the voodoo doll called Unionization


    Led by Chief Executive Carlos Brito, InBev is known for ruthless cost-cutting....
    It was unclear if InBev and the union met.



    Awwwwww BHO drinks Bud..... and he's up set .......pooor bubbie'

    A takeover of iconic U.S. company Anheuser has sparked an outcry from some politicians, including Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama.

    When the dollar is comparatively cheap currency, all sorts of possibilities are raised with foreign corporations buying US companies. I have a feeling this is just the start.

    My dad used to only drink budweiser. I wonder if he will still knowing that they are not domestic anymore 😀 That swill gives me a migraine, so I don't drink it. Nor do I drink Becks unless someone gives me one for some reason.

    The largest American-owned beer makers are now Sam Adams, Yuengling, and Sierra Nevada. While the high-volume pisswater makers are owned by others, Americans still own the breweries that make the quality, tasty brews.

    That is the one seasonal I don't like

    Octoberfest and Winter Ale are great, summer ale doesn't do anything for me

    I love Budweiser. Better yet, I love Michelob. Have you ever looked at the ingredients of a Michelob Beer?

    Water
    Barley
    Yeast
    Hops

    That's it. No preservatives. The only time Michelob tastes bad is when it's old or the mix is wrong on the tap. It's the closest thing to a Microbrew recipie from a Megabrewer.

    Michelob isn't bad. It's a decent fallback. You're going to pay in the afterlife for your love of "BUD", however 😛

    Goddamn, I hope our dollar starts rebounding soon!
    I agree, this shit is just the first of many take-overs. I don't even drink BUD, but the whole idea that it's owned by a foreign compay just makes me puke!

    Lets just sell MLB to Japan and grandma's apple pie receipe to the Iraqi's!
