Oh - InBev is a Belgian company according to you? To me it is a
Brazilian-steered multinational...

The dollar's slump makes scooping up US businesses and real estate a

The United States has become a bustling bargain basement for world
investors. Using excess dollars earned as a result of the massive US
trade deficit, foreigners are buying up big chunks of the nation's
businesses and properties. The latest shoppers: Abu Dhabi for New York's
Chrysler Building and a Belgian-Brazilian brewery for Anheuser-Busch.

Looks like it's considered "Belgian-Brazilian" to some.

In the USA, we see far more evidence of InBev's Belgian connections
than its Brazilian connections. Where I live, Brahma lager is pretty
much non-existent, but there's no shortage of Stella Artois, Leffe,
and Hoegaarden.

Negra Modelo is one of the few mass-made Vienna-style lagers, period.
The style has nearly disappeared from Austrian brewing. Vienna's
remaining big production brewery, Ottakringer, markets a "Schnitt,"
which is sorta like an old-style Vienna lager, but is actually a blend
of their pale and dark lagers. Their "Zwickl rot" is a red unfiltered
lager that is something like a rustic, yeasty version of a Vienna lager.

Otherwise, revivalist Vienna lagers are pretty much the domain of small
specialist brewers, particularly Vienna's Siebenstern and Salm brewpubs.
