It's all about the beer, part II

In an update to a previous post, all US concerns about the purchase of Anheuser-Busch were washed away by enough money added to the deal. As is commonly the case, The Onion's editorial cartoon gets it right. [If you don't see the cartoon as satirical, please navigate away slowly and delete this blog from your bookmarks....]

It's all about the beer

This story is fun too. While neither Molson's nor Labatt's produced anything worth drinking for a few years before they were acquired, it's kind of fun to see the zombified corpse of Labatt's screwing up a deal for the maker of Bud. So let's recap - Anheuser-Busch says that the jolly Belgians and Brazilians shouldn't buy them because InBev acquired a Cuban distributor when they bought a Canadian brewer, and it's not clear how they'll be able to comply with the U.S.'s anti-Cuba laws?
