vor of the Bud / Light.Also, AB owns the Rolling Rock brand. They bought it and then closed the brewery, sticking it to the employees and the town that made the brand worth buying in the first place. InBev has at least vowed to keep the breweries and HQ in operation. Would AB have bothered to do such a thing? ! ? !

Do you folks realize that A-B got it's start by copying a European beer recipe, copying its Budweiser name, and attempting to pass itself off as an "American Icon beer"? If a brewer from another country stole the recipe and/or name for Bud Light (although, why would they want to?!) and called it their own recipe, do you think that A-B would hesitate to sue them for whatever they could get? Would the typical American citizen/beer drinker hesitate to support them in such a lawsuit?After using another company's recipe and name, the legal dept at A-B have had the gall to turn around and sue the original company for trademark infringement... What a crock of B.S. ! ! ! Again, if another countries company - no matter what the industry - had attempted to do such a thing, would the U.S. company stand for such actions? Would the public? Would our so-called "leaders"? BTW... AB DOES have a lime/salt flavored swill.. (although I must admit that the lime does helpfully mask the foul fla

Tess and others, aslong as INBEV continues to support NASCAR then others will continue to make Bud their bible every Sunday....

Just say "NO". NO means NO! Just because you have the money, does not means you can do what you want. That is what is wrong all over the World. Our politics are a perfect example- they may not be qualified to be President; but if you have the money you can BUY it. A-B founding family does not want to be bought by In Bev, end of subject. NO means NO.

Its ok for American corporations to go globally and buy out foreign companies.Especially in the third world. But when a foreign co. with a lot of mula tries the same in the U.S.-what its not ok!??Wake up, this is the new world order man!!

Back in high school, I did my junior-theme (a very long paper)on Anheuser-Busch. It took a little convincing to let me do it, but I got an A on it. A-B is a true American company. One of the very few we have left. InBev is trying to bully them into selling. I know A-B will win this case. Shareholder's shouldn't worry about it. What do you want more, a historical and important part of American culture to stick around, or a few extra dollars in the bank. I literally mean a few extra dollars. Remember America, this Bud's for you........and you, and you, and you.......haha peace

InBev takeover would result in massive job losses in the United States. Their plan is to shut down every sideline activity associated with Anheiser Busch - That includes any theme parks affiliated with AB, Busch Stadium, Grant Farm, the list goes on and on. Not only that but any financial support given to athletic events, educational events, sports teams, concerts, etc., etc., etc. -- American citizens need to wake up!! We cannot afford to keep letting our companies and our jobs be gobbled up by foreign interests, moved to foreign soil to avoid taxes, and so on. We are already struggling here. It will only get worse if we do not speak out against losing American jobs to foreign interests. Stop bashing America and Capitalism -- We still live in the greatest country on the planet. We need to protect ourselves and future generations interests -- financially and otherwise. This is not a joke, and AB is not going to learn a lesson - American citizens will learn a lesson. AB has en

INBev has lots of conflicts that would hurt this country. Their board members have a European Union member that would not be for U.S.A interest. InBev is getting hostile with an American company in order to take it over. They are showing a lot of HATE towards board members of A.B. We can't let foreign interest destroy our country. Fight for what we have left in this country including our BEER!
