What are the odds that InBev closes A-B and ends up having CoorsMiller brew it all under contract? Nah. They've have Boston Brewing make it ...

Nah. They’ve have Boston Brewing make it …

I could be wrong, but if Miller isn't peddled by Inbev, then wouldn't that then make Miller Lite the American beer of the moment? Personally, I have no problems with Sam Adams and I will be happy to drink that or a Yuengling instead. But given the choice to go out and support American breweries, then I would have to go with someone who is a bit smaller. I'd bet Eric Bean from Columbus Brewing could probably use my couple bucks a bit more than those other guys.

Hate to see a great American company change drastically. Hate the product. I am all about the handcraft beer myself. I home brew and when I buy beer it is only a small brewery. If you get a chance try the Texas handcrafted; Shiner. Maybe you have already heard of it. Got to say I agree with you about many items. Hate to see a great American company change drastically.

Either way, it's a significant loss to the American business landscape.
