    Angry THIS BUDS FOR YOU

    It's hard to beleive that a genuine American Icon is about to be changed forever.(it will never be the same after the deal).
    Congress can step in and stop all kinds of foreign takeovers but not a word about this one! As a beer drinker (retired) i enjoyed my share of Anheuser-Busch products and both of the parks. I can only think how bad the folks in St. Louis feel!
    Seriously this is not good. And not a peep out of you guys
    WTF????

    the last to fall

    There are no more big brewers in USA, BUD was the last to fall to Improving Share Holder value and Market share to the world...

    Coors is part of Molson (Canada)
    Miller is owned by SAB (South Africa)

    As a share holder I was very happy, but I got out... as an American I've started drinking SAM ADAMS BABY!!!!!

    Busch Gardens

    Busch Gardens is pretty close to me. I wonder what's going to happen to that?

    I've already heard that Bud Select will probably be discontinued. A few others will be gone too, but the main brands like Bud, Bud Light, Michelob, etc. will not change in the near future, who knows what will happen down the road. The Inbev company has had the Budweiser recipe for 4 years now. The Busch brothers were only 5% owners. This all came from someone that I know that works at the brewery.

    A friggin' disgrace if you ask me...

    Sad indeed to see an American Icon sold

    Sam Adams is now the # Brewer in the USA.
    God Bless Jim Koch !

    The Great American Lager, those red white and blues won't go down as easy anymore . Bud is a great beer , but it has lost it's popularity lately, the young people won't touch the stuff, they think it's a hick beer.
