    Anyone notice that A. Busch is about to be taken over by Ibev out of Belgium? Big story on MSN this morning. Looks like they have a fighting chance and I hope they can withstand the pressure. I'd hate for that company to fall into foreign hands. Thoughts?

    I'm not thinking it would affect the way they make crappy beer.

    That's good news... While I don't like 99% of the beers AB makes, AB is investing a ton of money in small craft breweries now. I'd like to see that continue.

    to answer the original question, it appears the answer would be "no".

    Thats what the doofuses get for not owning 51% of their own dam company. Losing an American icon like this is a real shame.
