First off America doesn't own Anheuser-Busch - it's shareholder
owned. And they decide who owns the company. Transacting the sale is
easy. Just offer a price to shareholders that is well above current
market.

Look at it this way. AB products might actually have flavor now.

Americans work for A-B's various breweries, too, y'know. Quite a few
Americans.

Because ... ? You think your favorite macroswill is somehow changed
because it's now part of a global concern?

It's already sold overseas, but it's brewed either under license or
by wholly owned subsidiaries overseas. You don't have problems with
foreigners drinking beer from an American-owned brewery, but now that
it's part of a multi-national conglomerate, that's all awful and bad?

If so, you need to get out more.

Ship it overseas? Isn't it brewed overseas?

AHAHAHAHAHAH! I knew this deal was gonna happen when I first heard
about it. All the vacuous posturing about "Hell no! Bud won't go!"
AHAHAHA!!! It's all about the MONEY! No one gives a rat's ass about
heritage or family, etc.

And BTW I gave up drinking that AB swill about 18 years ago after
attending my first Riddle's Beer Tasting, and discovered there were
beers with flavors I actually liked! And NONE were made by AB!! Long
live import and microbrew beers!! Anyone who puts rice in beer is a
moron!!

Yeah, people like Sam Calagione and the Klisch brothers sure
are morons. They wouldn't know good beer if it was dumped on
their heads.

Yep...not familiar with Lakefront, but if it's as good as Dogfish
Head.....now that's some damn good beer.

4 ingredients in beer:

Water
Barley
Yeast
Hops

Anything else in it is not beer.

And as for your banal sig. file comment, beers don't stain anything
unless you spill them, and I consider that alcohol abuse!! ;-)

What proof do you have for that statement?

I have a library full of books that prove you wrong.

So: Bavarian Hefeweizen is not beer. American-style wheat beer is not
beer. Belgian witbier is not bier. Lambic, gueuze, kriek: not beer.
Belgian Abbey ales and Trappist ales are not beer. Gosebier is not
beer. Berliner Weisse is not beer. Oatmeal stout is not beer. Spiced
Belgian specialty ales are not beer. All historical beer styles brewed
without hops, or with other herbs and spices in addition to hops, are
not beer. Beers fermented with addition of Brettanomyces aren't beer.
Belgian sour brown and red ales aren't beer either.

Is that what you meant to claim, peanut?

'Cause if it is, you're in need of a slap upside the head with a clue-
by-four.
